The problem of "Log4j.properties can't be recognized"of 2.6 and 2.5 war file deloyment on Tomcat

[Tony Li]

Hi Guys,

 I'm trying to deploy 2.6/2.5 war file on my tomcat webapps dir, after startup I saw errors in catalina.out file, says log4j.properties can't be found, whilst a 2.2.3 war file works perfectly in same environment. 

 Is there anyone have same experiences?

OS: Suse 2.6.32.54-0.3-default #1 SMP 2012-01-27 17:38:56 +0100 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Tomcat 7 rundeck 2.6/2.5

 Here is the error message:

INFO: At least one JAR was scanned for TLDs yet contained no TLDs. Enable debug logging for this logger for a complete list of JARs that were scanned but no TLDs were found in them. Skipping unneeded JARs during scanning can improve startup time and JSP compilation time.

 Thanks for any suggestion in advance.

And I know the log4j.properties should be created during the first run of 2.6/2.5 war in rdbase/etc, but the etc directory didn't get created somehow.

The workaround is to create a log4j.properties file manually at `webapps/rundeck/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties`.  It can be empty.
