It seems, that environment variables list does not work.
Even from VM argument all ok:

-Dlogger.config=C:\eclipse\workspace\anthrax\etc\archiver\log4j.xml

Comment 2 Joe Szurszewski CLA 2002-03-19 14:23:14 EST 
The -D option defines a system property.  Launch configs do not handle setting 
system properties, only environment variables.  Work-around is to specify -
Dname=value in the program arguments.  Will save this bug as a future feature 
request.
Comment 3 Darin Wright CLA 2002-03-25 11:24:22 EST 
Deferred - do not intend to support system properties for 2.0
Comment 4 Darin Wright CLA 2004-08-26 09:53:02 EDT 
Re-opening to mark as dup
