Download the filemoin tool from sysinternals.com and filter the log4j.xml in the tool. It will point to the path from where it is picking from.
Hope this helps.

I have an utility jar file where I pick up the log4j.xml file as:
I placed the utility jar file within the web apps /lib folder and placed the log4j.xml file under the web apps /classes folder ...
When I try these at my local machine with the local test server, it works fine ..
But when I try to deploy and run it on the dev server, it says .. . No appenders found for logger ....etc...
That is it can't find the log4j.xml file ....!!!!!!!
Why is it working on my local machine but not the dev server?
I understand that it's a classloader problem ..
How do I fix it? on the dev server ?
Thax.

Most likely its picking up wrong configuration file.
Set the following system property:
-Dlog4j.debug=true
to see which file its picking up for configuration.
