Hi,

we use this instructions to log to a file. Sounds a bit complicated, but
should work:

Follow the following steps to setup a file named tomcat.log that has
internal Tomcat logging output to it:
   1. Create a file called log4j.properties with the following content and
save it into common/classes.
   2.
            log4j.rootLogger=warn, R 
            log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender 
            log4j.appender.R.File=${catalina.home}/logs/tomcat.log 
            log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB 
            log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10 
            log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout 
            log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern= ?p  ?t  ?c -  ?m?n 
            log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina=DEBUG, R
   3. The log4j.jar and commons-loggin.jar will be put into your
$CATALINA_HOME/common/lib when you get the latest version of the
website_config libs (towards the end of this setup).
   4. Install Commons Logging and place the commons-logging.jar (not
commons-logging-api.jar) in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib with the log4j jar.
   5. Start Tomcat
This log4j configuration sets up a file called tomcat.log in your Tomcat
logs folder with a maximum file size of 10MB and up to 10 backups. DEBUG
level is specified which will result in the most verbose output from Tomcat.
