Axis 1.1 and Log4j problem with PropertyConfigurator.confgure.

[Stephen Graham <sg...@bigpond.com>]

Hello,
 
As far as I can tell the log4j library that is shipped with the currently
nightly builds of Axis is critically different to the official release
version of log4j. As I mentioned earlier when I call the
PropertyConfigurator.configure method inside the web-service constructor the
service hangs.
 
However if I remove the log4j-yyyymmdd.jar file from the deployed
WEB-INF/lib directory and replace it with the latest log4j library
(log4j-1.2.8.jar) everything works properly.
 
Does anybody have any insight into what may be causing this problem? It has
only showed up in the nightly builds quite recently. I've tried removing the
Log4j properties files from axis.jar, but that doesn't help.
 
Regards
Stephen Graham.
