Hi ,

How can we specify were log4j has to look at when trying to find its xml configuration file ?

It seems that by default, log4j looks into the root of a class folder, I can say that using the debug log4j functionality and running my application from the IDE.

However, I don't have any class folder in my jar anymore. And the log4j.xml file is at the root of the jar.

I have already tried to set the option -Dlog4j.configuration=log4j.xml but it doesn't work.

Thanks !
