In order to have a seperate log file for each web app you will need a logger for each context.
Tomcat3 had ContextXmlReader that would allow you put context configuration for each webapp in its own file. It also had LogSetter name=servlet_log that you could define in <ContextManager> and log all your servlets to the same file. Not sure what replace these in tc4 & 5. Did you try using Logger inside <DefaultContext>? I would expect it write all your app logs to one file, but don't know for sure. http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/defaultcontext.html http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/logger.html Hope others have better answers. I'd like to know more too.
