The configuration you listed works here in a simple test scenario with 
log4j-1.2.15, so it must be something else.

What version of log4j are you using?

Have you tried setting a break point in the static initializer part in 
org.apache.log4j.LogManager and step through the code?  You may want to 
set the debugger to look for NullPointerExceptions so you can catch it 
immediately.
