           Summary: log4j initialization in java1.3 no dom in class path.
           Product: Log4j
           Version: 1.2
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Configurator
        AssignedTo: log4j-dev@logging.apache.org
        ReportedBy: skarzhevskyy@gmail.com


If I have log4j.xml  file in calss path and don't have any dom implementation.

It would be nice to catch java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError error and not load 
xml file at all.
now it just want initialize the program at all. And Java error mesage is not 
so descriptive as usual. So Untill I caught the exception myself I could not 
figure out why and what call is missing.

This is how this looks:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError
        at uut.TastCase01.method1(TastCase01.java:61)
        at uut.TastCase01.main(TastCase01.java:45)


I'm using: log4j-1.2.9.jar, jdk1.3.1_11, Windows XP,

Also I have -Dlog4j.configuration=log4jJour.xml
and log4jJour.xml is in calss path.

If I have:
} catch (NoClassDefFoundError e) {
  e.printStackTrace();
}

then I could see:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/w3c/dom/Node
        at java.lang.Class.newInstance0(Native Method)
        at java.lang.Class.newInstance(Class.java:232)
