I suspect utility code that is performing its own configuration of Log4j
without your knowledge. Or, depending on where Log4j is, it might be
another webapp which is configuring itself that is affecting your
application. If Log4j.jar is in shared/lib or common/lib, and there is no
log4j.jar in either yours or other webapps, then you are all using the same
logger repository of the same instance of Log4j. In that case, the way to
work around it is to make sure you put Log4j.jar in WEB-INF/lib of your
webapp. That will insulate you from other webapps using Log4j. The other
way around this is using a repository selector. Search this list for how
to use a repository selector.
