No, because log4j loggers don't implement the org.apache.catalina.Logger interface. A bridging implementation is possible (i.e. a thin wrapper around org.apache.log4j.FileAppender that implements org.apache.catalina.Logger) but not trivial. >> Most >> of the people on the tomcat-user list are developers anyways.

Of course, if I could, I would. I remember a Not for this list, it's not. Many tomcat users modify/extend/create their own Loggers, Valve, Manager, and other tomcat plug-ins. >discussion about making log4j a standard Logger for all Jakarta project, >but perhaps was it a log4j developer wish. There is a move to replace tomcat's proprietary Loggers with commons-logging equivalents. It's nearly completely done in tomcat 5. >I'm open to nay other opinion about this concern. There's also the XSL approach you mentioned earlier. You could pre-process server.xml yourself with xslt (e.g. via Ant's xslt task). You would have to write the xsl stylesheet, there isn't one already available AFAIK. The XSL would match the <Logger> pattern and replace tokens in it with what you specify.
