websphere下log4j不起作用的问题

最近在做项目时，应用程序服务器从webLogic换到websphere7后，项目中配置的log4j.xml 文件竟然不起作用了，日志文件一个都没有打出来。

经过查证，原来是websphere的日志配置优先级要大于工程中的log4j的配置，都was7了还存在这个问题，不知道IBM有没有想过啥时候能彻底解决一下这个毛病。

下面是从网络上看到的一个解决方法，觉得很有效，在这里和大家分享一下。

1、新建一个 commons-logging.properties配置文件，文件内容为： 

priority=1

org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl

org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger

2、将写好配置的commons-logging.properties

  放到 /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/AppSrv01/properties目录下

在windows上测试时，把上述文件放到websphere后，启动之后进入控制台会报有关servlet的错误。

如果出现了错误，可以把上述文件内容简化为：

org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl

只要这一句话就够了。
