Re: Throwing IllegalArgumentException when using
RollingFileAppender
I wouldn't be mixing Log4j 1.1.3 and 1.2.13. Why are you using two
different versions? Pick one (the newer one) and call it a day. In
fact, download 1.2.14 just to make sure you are up to date with the
latest and greatest.

What do you mean you use "LogFactory"? Are you just getting loggers? The
pattern is...
Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("loggername");
Or did you write a custom appender or some other extension of Log4j?
As far as the error goes, it's unusual that your webapp would be having
difficulty. Child-first classloading behavior should keep the Log4j versions
isolated. I can think of two possible issues...
1. You are running under some custom configuration of Tomcat where Parent-First
classloading behavior is used. This would be common if Tomcat is used as an
embedded servlet container, such as under JBoss. Otherwise, it would be
unusual as the scripts and config that Tomcat ships with in standalone mode
enable Child-First classloading behavior.
2. The Log4j-1.2.xx instance in your webapp is picking up the logging
properties of Log4j-1.1.3. It's possible that the 1.1.3 config is not
compatible with the 1.2.x config. The remedy here is to put log4j.properties
or log4j.xml in WEB-INF/classes that is compatible with Log4j-1.2.xx

Hi Jake,
I dont have a control on other application to do that. Because they have not used the anything in the latest log4j. But in my application i used LogFactory which is available in 1.2.13 and not in 1.1.13. So they are not ready to upgrade with me.
