In case it helps, this is what I do with Tomcat 5.0.28 (Win 2000 without installer, j2sdk1.4.2_04): - I do not put log4j.jar in commom/lib, but in the WEB-INF/lib of my web app. - I put log4j.xml (equivalent to log4j.properties) and commons-logging.properties in WEB-INF/classes of my app. The archive commons-logging.properties contains:
org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger I use the commons-logging api in my application classes. Regards. Pedro Nevado -----Mensaje original----- De: Patrick Burleson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: domingo, 05 de septiembre de 2004 17:05 Para: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: Log4J in Tomcat 5.0...I don't believe the FAQ So I'm trying to get Tomcat 5.0 to use Log4J for its log output formatted to my liking. Started searching and found a link to this message in the Tomcat FAQ that says it has the solution. http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=108330970225012&w=2 Well, after performing what seem like simple steps (probably the steps I would have done anyway), still no logging through Log4J. Did I miss some magically step number 4 or even step 0? I copied log4j-1.2.8.jar to <CATALINA>/commons/lib and put the example log4j.properties in <CATALINA>/commons/classes at DEBUG level and still only got the original format with only INFO level stuff printing out. I tried with the following versions of Tomcat on Windows XP with JDK 1.4.2_05 and JDK 5.0-RC: 5.0.27 Windows Installer 5.0.27 Zip file 5.0.19 Windows Installer 5.0.19 Zip File I tried the last two since they were the version mention in the mail message. I tried the zips thinking maybe there was something "different" about the windows installers. Later in that thread it is mentioned by Jacob Kjome in message http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=tomcat-user&m=108333554729166&w=2 : " I've pointed out almost these exact instructions many times before and people keep asking or say it doesn't work (it does)." I just don't believe it. There has to be something I missed...but that's hard to do when there's only 3 steps, one of them being "Download Log4J". Any ideas?
