WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.http.impl.conn.tsccm.ThreadSafeClientConnManager)

Question

My log4j properties file

log4j.logger.devpinoyLogger=DEBUG, dest1,
log4j.appender.dest1=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.dest1.maxFileSize=5000KB
log4j.appender.dest1.maxBackupIndex=3
log4j.appender.dest1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.dest1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss} %c %m%n
log4j.appender.dest1.File=C:\\Selenium\\eclipse-jee-juno-SR1-win32\\eclipse\\Workspace\\Core_Hybrid\\src\\com\\logs\\Application.log
log4j.appender.dest1.Append=false

I get the Error msg as stated below :

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.apache.http.impl.conn.tsccm.ThreadSafeClientConnManager).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

I have placed my properties files inside the src folder and imported the log4j.jar in the build path.

Please help on this

As I remember the log4j.properties file must be in the root-directory of the execution and added to the classPath. So this means the file must be on the same level as the src-Folder and not within this folder. Or you have to change the root-directory of your execution to your src-folder.

There's a typo in your configuration file. Remove the last ',' in the first line:

     log4j.logger.devpinoyLogger=DEBUG, dest1          

You should define a root logger to avoid such "No appender" warning.

      log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG, dest1
