How to use log4j with an AMP

[lvs]

Hi,

I want to developp extension for my Alfresco instance and to package them into an AMP. I am trying to use log4j into my AMP for the classes of my new package, so I created a log4j.properties and put it at the root of my jar file, but it does not seem to be found by log4j.
Do you know if I am doing something wrong? Perhaps I should put the log4j.properties in another place?
Changing the log4j.properties directly in the ALfresco.war is not a good alternative for me because we are trying to developp all extensions using AMP.

Thanks for your help!!

This is my log4j file

log4j.rootLogger=debug, Console

###### Console appender definition #######

# All outputs currently set to be a ConsoleAppender.
log4j.appender.Console=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.Console.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.Console.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %-5p [%c{3}] %m%n
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

an dI also tried with this one :

log4j.logger.org.aalfresco.module.mymodule=debug
‍‍‍

Thanks for your help!

This will be possible with 2.2 (post BETA). Refer to:
