log4j.dtd not found
Hi,
I'm trying to use the XML config file support for LOG4J, in a servlet (Orion
server on Win2K).
The server finds the config file itself, but then when calling
DomConfigurator.configure(), I get the exception:
>>>
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: File "log4j.dtd" not found.
>>>
I have tried:
- Putting log4j.dtd in the same directory as the XML file
- Putting it in the servlet's classpath (there is a comment in the examples
that suggests this should work)
- using an absolute path to log4j.dtd in the DOCTYPE tag
- using a relative (to the XML file) path in the DOCTYPE tag
... none of which works!
Can anyone help please?
TIA
Charles.

Charles,
The DOMConfigurator.configure method ignores the DOCTYPE tag. It searches for the log4j.dtd itself. See
DOMConfigurator.doConfigure(InputStream input, Hierarchy hierarchy) method on how this is done.
The problem is most definitely a classloader issue. Let me come back to you once I have studied it a bit more.
Which JDK is this by the way? Ceki
