That doesn't seem obvious to me. > It also points to > the bigger problem of all instances sharing CATALINA_HOME/common for > everything. As I understand it, the whole point in setting CATALINA_BASE and CATALINA_HOME to different values is to have multiple Tomcat instances running from the *same* set of binaries and libs. So, to me this seems to be exactly the way it's meant to be. > Is there a way to get each instance of tomcat to use its own > CATALINA_BASE/common directory? If there is a way, I know nothing of it. But, as already suggested, you could run multiple Tomcat instances from multiple installation directories. Or you could bundle log4j with the webapps that need it instead of putting it in common/lib.
