Thanks for your prompt reply. Can you please tell me how to do the configuration from within the application? I don't want to alter any jboss config files. All my log4j configurations should be from within my seam web app. I have seen some posts about using log4j.properties under WEB-INF but could not get it to work. Thnx for the help Cheers, Jane View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4117542#...
