The error looks like it is happening at the Tomcat level. This probably means that commons-logging, which Tomcat uses, is finding Log4j in the classpath and attempting to use it. Try putting a very simple "log4j.xml" config file in the Tomcat common/classes directory (or elsewhere on the classpath) with a console appender and a basic root logger that logs at the INFO level to the console appender. That should remove the unnecessary chatter.
Besides that, it looks like Tomcat isn't even starting up properly. You're getting java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:org.apache.catalina.core.StandardServer. That can't be good! Logging for your app isn't even an issue yet because Tomcat can't even start successfully, therefore you custom logging initialization isn't even running. Fix the other issues before you assume that log4j isn't working. Jake Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]: > Hi All > > I'm new to asking questions but I'll try and keep it smart.
