Bug 211081 log4j not working with preview
I am using log4j in the scripting Database source. I place my log4j-1.2.15.jar file in the folder C:\eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.birt. report.viewer_2.2.1.r22x_v20070920\ birt\WEB-INF\lib However when I try to preview I get an error Http Status 500. When I check the log files I see the following exceptions java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Category
viewer/org.eclipse.birt.report.viewer/birt/WEB-INF/classes/org/eclipse/birt/report/utility/ParameterAccessor.java
if ( baseName == null || baseName.trim( ).length( ) <= 0 )
			return fileName;
		int index = baseName.lastIndexOf( '/' );
		if ( index == -1 )
			index = baseName.lastIndexOf( '\\' );
		
		
		if ( index != -1 )
		{
			baseName = baseName.substring( index + 1 );
		}
		
		
		
		int dotIndex = baseName.lastIndexOf( '.' );
		if ( dotIndex > 0 )
		{
			fileName = baseName.substring( 0, dotIndex );
		}
		
		for ( int i = 0; i < fileName.length( ); i++ )
		{
			char c = fileName.charAt( i );
			
			if ( c < 0x00 || c >= 0x80 )
			{
				fileName = defaultName;
				break;
			}
		}
