ClassNotFoundException: LogFilePatternReceiver

["Manda, Sampath (Contractor)" <sm...@harris.com>]

Hi , 

I  am using the latest version of chainsaw (local copy and using
chainsaw.bat)


Below is chainsaw configuration 


<plugin name="LogFileReceiver"
class="org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver">
        <param name="fileURL" value="file:///C:/Tomcat
5.5/logs/hrs.log"/>
        <param name="timestampFormat" value="yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss,SSS"/> 
       <param name="logFormat" value="TIMESTAMP
LEVEL(FILE:LINE)#CLASS,LOGGER THREAD!MESSAGE"/>
        <param name="name" value="LogFileReceiver"/>
        <param name="tailing" value="true"/> 
   </plugin>



Unable to add a receiver due to the below exception.
ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.varia.LogFilePatternReceiver

This  class is present in log4j-oro.jar . But if I add this in classpath
( in chainsaw.bat)
chainsaw itself does not start



Request help at the earliest.


Thanks
Sampath
