Problem instantiating ActionServlet of Struts1.1-b2 with Log4J-1.2.7

[Vishal Gautam]

Struts Gurus:
Has any one able to use the latest Struts (1.1-b2) classes with latest
Log4J(1.2.7). In my web app, ActionServlet is refusing to instantiate
when Log4J-1.2.7 is in the WEB-INF/lib, with following error. If any
one has experienced this problem and/or knows the solution, please
post.
TIA

Hi,

Check if struts has another log4j jar inside his
own libraries. Apache moving log4j to sun's api
and depreciated Log. May be it is possible
to fix this clash by specifying (somewhere)
old Factory implicitly for struts and use new
factory for application code ... ?
