Hi,
The example in http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/logging.html is 
a decent start.  Since your goal is to reduce messages being output to the log, 
at least for this 3rd party application, add a line like
log4j.logger.rootPackageOf3rdPartyApp = WARN
to the sample file at the above URL, and you should be all set.

Hi,
We have a 3rd party application which has a nasty habit of chucking out a load 
of messages to stdout and stderr.
Up until tomcat 5 we used a console Logger with swallowOutput turned on to 
catch all that output so it didnt end up in catalina.out.
Obviously in 5.5 this is not possible and Log4J seems to be the way to go. I've 
tried this but not having much luck. I think it's just that I don't understand 
the log4j.properties file.
Could someone perhaps post a sample that would do roughly what I need and I can 
tweak it from there.
Ta
Matt
