After hours of messing around trying to get the log4j to initialize with
tomcat here's what you need to do:
Put the log4j jar file into $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib, and your
log4j.properties or log4j.xml into $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes. Then
modify your tomcat jsvc classpath variable to look something like:
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:\
$JAVA_HOME/lib/tools.jar:\
$DAEMON_HOME/dist/commons-daemon.jar:\
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/bootstrap.jar:\
$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/log4j-1.2.8.jar:\
$CATALINA_HOME/common/classes
And wallah everything will work =)

Subject: Log4j Problem w/Tomcat 5.0.24 and JSVC
> Hey All I am running Tomcat 5.0.24 on a RH9 Machine, at startup using
JSVC.
> My root problem is I am unable to get tomcat's SSL port to run on 443..
> (works peachy on 8443, but when I hit 443 I get nothing it just hangs and

could

but
