Hi Mr. Sese, when we introduced commons-logging in one of our projects where log4j already were used, we had the problem that the entire application could not been loaded by Tomcat-7. The logs showed some wired ClassNotFoundExceptions. It took us lots of time to find out, that we only had to put a file with the name "commons-logging.properties" to the classpath of the application with following content:
org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger This solved our problem. Maybe it also will help you, or might show you a hint to where your problem might be? with kind regards René Glanzer 2013/2/8 Albert Sese <albert.s...@gmail.com> > Hi all, > > We recently updated our commons logging to 1.1.1, however our log4j > configuration stopped working; everything gets logged to server.log.
