Move Your log4j properties file into the src folder  Open Windows explorer  browse to the directory where your project resides in  Browse to bin directory and delete all the folders with in it   Now in eclipse click project---- clean---- OK  This would force it to build the project again all the contents delete from bin directory will be recreated   I took while to figure this out  At times directly clicking clean doesn t work

There are many possible options for specifying your log4j configuration  One is for the file to be named exactly  log4j properties  and be in your classpath  Another is to name it however you want and add a System property to the command line when you start Java  like this   -Dlog4j configuration file    path to your log4j properties   All of them are outlined here http   logging apache org log4j 1 2 manual html defaultInit
