log4j configuration loading

I have several log4j.xml logj configuration file in my tomcat application. One out of the application in /home/toto/etc/log4j.xml and one other in my WEB-INF/classes/ application.

These two configuration files seems to be loaded but, do you know in which order there are loaded, or if they are merged at the compilation?

You can add this parameter to the JVM args to see what log4j is doing, it will then log from where it loads the configuration:

-Dlog4j.debug

Also if you wish to override them I think log4j.properties file takes precedence over .xml files, so you could create a log4j.properties file.
