Tnx

I've also tried myself locally on my laptop (Wind10, Tomcat 9.0.16, log4j2 2.11.2, Java 1.8.0_162) but the exact same problem.

I've also looked at the docs on the Tomcat side: for Tomcat 9 the docs on logging don't mention this mechanism to use log4j anymore. On the 8.0 documentation it is there, but talks about Log4j 1 and also details how you need to replace the tomcat-juli(-adapters).jars, which I think is not required anymore, see this case: https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58588. However, that case seems to suggest that the way to replace tomcats internal logging is through JUL....

So, I gave JUL another shot:

- with all the log4j-core/api/jul/ and a log4j2.properties on the classpath set through  setenv.sh, I'm able to replace the internal logging of Tomcat using Log4j2. So far so good.

- For the logging from the single webaap/WAR I'll ever deploy in this tomcat instance, I have custom appenders that have static fields that are accessed from within the deployed webapp and through the log4j2 appender interface methods. Hence, log4j2 and the webapp need to use the same classloader (hierarchy), otherwise they'll be looking at teh same class loaded through different classloaders, thus different instances of the static field. I've got log4j2-web.jar and the jar containing my custom appenders both in the WEB-INF/lib folder of my webapp + a log4j2.properties in the WEB-INF folder, but then Log4J can't find the custom appenders. If I put the jar with the custom appenders on the classpath via Tomcat's setenv.sh, Log4J initializes properly, but the WebApp and Log4j seem to use 2 different classloaders, thus I run into the problem with multiple instances of the static field

Is there any setup I can use that works in this scenario?

Ok. I will try it myself with both of those and let you know, but it might take 
a couple of days.

With log4j-web on the classmate the INFO statements you mentioned
disappear, but the problem of internal tomcat logging via log4j isn't
solved.

And I've went through but those links many times, tried everything I could
find there, but no avail

Hi Paul,

Please try adding the log4j-web jar to the classpath:
INFO StatusLogger Log4j appears to be running in a Servlet environment,
but there's no log4j-web module available. If you want better web container
support, please add the log4j-web JAR to your web archive or server lib
directory.

Also, this user manual page may be useful:
https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/webapp.html (and maybe this
one: https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/logsep.html).
