log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger 问题解决

在springmvc的web项目中常常会在tomcat启动的时候出现这种提示： 

log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader). 
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.

网上有好多解决办法都不管用，这个提示应该是读入web应用程序的log4j.properties文件之前就报出来了。是在加载org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader这个listener的时候没找到log4j的配置文件造成的。 


仔细查看web.xml发现在加载org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader这个listener之后才加载org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener，把log4j的配置放到org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoader之前，就可以解决这个问题了。 

<!-- 以下3项参数与log4j的配置相关 -->  
      
    <context-param>  
        <param-name>log4jConfigLocation</param-name>  
        <param-value>/WEB-INF/log4j.properties</param-value>  
    </context-param>  
      
    <context-param>  
        <param-name>log4jRefreshInterval</param-name>  
        <param-value>60000</param-value>  
    </context-param>  
    <listener>  
        <listener-class>  
            org.springframework.web.util.Log4jConfigListener  
        </listener-class>  
    </listener>  
<!-- end -->  
  
    <listener>  
        <listener-class>  
            org.springframework.web.context.ContextLoaderListener  
        </listener-class>  
    </listener>
