How do I configure Log4j to read my properties file?
I am sending an SMS using SMSLib in Java. I have loaded the log4j jar file and placed the log4j.properties file in the right place, but it still can't read it and gets the below exception:
Exception text:
log4j:ERROR Could not read configuration file [log4j.properties]. java.io.FileNotFoundException: log4j.properties (Le fichier spécifié est introuvable) at java.io.FileInputStream.open(Native Method) at java.io.FileInputStream.(FileInputStream.java:138) at java.io.FileInputStream.(FileInputStream.java:97) at org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.doConfigure(PropertyConfigurator.java:372) at org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.configure(PropertyConfigurator.java:403) at org.smslib.helper.Logger.(Logger.java:50) at org.smslib.helper.Logger.(Logger.java:29) at org.smslib.Service.listSystemInformation(Service.java:113) at org.smslib.Service.initializeService(Service.java:103) at org.smslib.Service.(Service.java:95) at org.smslib.Service.(Service.java:90) at laposte.EnvoiSMS.(EnvoiSMS.java:181) at laposte.login.passwordKeyPressed(login.java:230) at laposte.login.access$100(login.java:26) at laposte.login$2.keyPressed(login.java:80) at java.awt.Component.processKeyEvent(Component.java:6463) at javax.swing.JComponent.processKeyEvent(JComponent.java:2829) at java.awt.Component.processEvent(Component.java:6282) at java.awt.Container.processEvent(Container.java:2229) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Component.java:4861) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:2287) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:4687) at java.awt.KeyboardFocusManager.redispatchEvent(KeyboardFocusManager.java:1895) at java.awt.DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.dispatchKeyEvent(DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.java:762) at java.awt.DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.preDispatchKeyEvent(DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.java:1027) at java.awt.DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.typeAheadAssertions(DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.java:899) at java.awt.DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.dispatchEvent(DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.java:727) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Component.java:4731) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:2287) at java.awt.Window.dispatchEventImpl(Window.java:2719) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:4687) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEventImpl(EventQueue.java:729) at java.awt.EventQueue.access$200(EventQueue.java:103) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(EventQueue.java:688) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(EventQueue.java:686) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:76) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:87) at java.awt.EventQueue$4.run(EventQueue.java:702) at java.awt.EventQueue$4.run(EventQueue.java:700) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:76) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:699) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(EventDispatchThread.java:242) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(EventDispatchThread.java:161) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:150) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:146) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:138) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:91) log4j:ERROR Ignoring configuration file [log4j.properties]. log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (smslib). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.
