o.a.c.logger.SystemOutLogger and o.a.c.logger.SystemErrLogger do the opposite of what you want. They direct all ServletContext.log() for a specific Context to the Catalina's standard output or standard error output respectively. Like I said I believe you can't cheat System.out.print() into working like ServletContext.log(), which gives you the convinience of per-Context Loggers. You can only change the entire Tomcat engine's standard (error) output to a destination other than $CATALINA_HOME/logs/catalina.out as laid out in my previous message. You may have to write a Perl script or use sed (or a Windows equivalent, if any) to replace every occurance of System.out.print()/println() with calls to a good logging API like commons-logging or log4j.
