I do not use Tomcat, but if I remember correctly Tomcat itself defines a root logger programatically and redirects stdout to that logger.
Try setting the additivity for your logger to false, which would stop messages sent to your logger from also being handled by other loggers higher in its hierarchy: log4j.additivity.blccpl.common.hook.ichook=false -----Original Message----- From: Scott Burns [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2003 5:43 AM To: Log4J Users List Subject: Logging appears in catalina out We have written a wrapper around log4j. Each web application logs to a file specified in its property file. The problem is that I am seeing logging messages also appearing in catalina out(Tomcat/4.1.18). This does not occur on systems using tomcat 4.0.6. Below is a sample of one of the web applications configuration property files. Any suggestions or thoughts on why this is getting sent to catalina out would be appreciated. Is our setup incorrect? Also I can't changes versions app servers so this is not an option. Thanks in advance.
