So, I'm running 1.1rc of struts, tomcat 4.1.18, and I just downloaded log4j 1.2.8.
I have a struts webapp in development, and I currently have all of the struts-required commons-*.jar files in WEB-INF/lib, and I dropped log4j-1.2.8.jar there also. After deployment, at random times, tomcat now hangs on me and won't let me connect. The only error of note is in catalina.out and is: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: Class org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JCategoryLog does not implement Log at org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.newInstance(LogFactoryImpl.java:555) at org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl.getInstance(LogFactoryImpl.java:289) at org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory.getLog(LogFactory.java:409) at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.CommonLogHandler.log(CommonLogHandler.java:97) at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.Log.log(Log.java:198) at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.Log.log(Log.java:192) at org.apache.tomcat.util.log.Log.log(Log.java:174) at org.apache.tomcat.util.threads.ThreadPool$ControlRunnable.run(ThreadPool.java:533) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:484) So, from digging around, I now have a copy of commons-logging at: ${TOMCAT_HOME}/server/lib _and_ at webapps/myapp/WEB-INF/lib and, I suspect that the commons-logging stuff that tomcat is using is seeing log4j that i wanted my struts webapp to use, and problems are being caused. What do I need to do to fix this? I want to keep my struts webapp self contained and not rely on jar files in tomcat if I can help it. Can I do that? -- Kirby Vandivort Theoretical and Computational Biophysics Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 3051 Beckman Institute http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/~kvandivo/ University of Illinois Phone: (217) 244-5711 405 N.
