Do you mean that you *did* configure Tomcat for log4j, or that you
didn't? If you did, what does the Tomcat (global) log4j.properties
file look like? The one you posted was clearly intended to be used
only with your web application.
Okay, let's start over again. I *think* this is your environment:
1. Tomcat configured to use log4j
2. Your webapp is written to use Apache commons-logging
2. Your webapp configured to use log4j
3. Your webapp's log4j sends everything to the ConsoleLogger (stdout)
#1 above implies that modifying Tomcat's conf/logging.properties file
will not affect anything.

Is Log4JUtils a class of yours? How does it know the path to the log file?

So you are using commons-logging in your code. Have you provided any
special configuration to commons-logging, or are you allowing it to
auto-detect that log4j is your real logging mechanism?

I think you meant log4j.debug=true, and that might have to be a system
property. Try setting it in log4j.properties to see what happens.

I see no appenders configured except for the ConsoleAppender. How are
your logs ending-up in /tmp?
There is obviously a lot more to the story than what you have posted.
Can we get more?
