Specifying log4j.xml as a file

When i specified the path of the file, i.e file:///sw/merlot/config/log4j.xml (this is not in a jar), its not taking log4j.xml from that path, instead it's taking the default log4j.xml stored in a jar.

How can i specify that path so that it takes log4j.xml from the specified path, instead taking it from a jar?

DOMConfigurator.configure("file:///sw/merlot/config/log4j.xml");
Logger log = Logger.getLogger(YourClass.class);

Use

java -Dlog4j.configuration=/home/user/path/to/your/log4j.xml -jar yourJar.jar
