Ok My problem is solved. After reading some more documentation on commons-logging. The trick is in $TOMCAT_HOME\bin\commons-logging-api.jar. It doesn't contain the Adapters for Log4j. Because it's on the container class path, it is always used, even if you put newer version into webapp\WEB-INF\lib After replacing it with commons-logging-api-1.1.jar (renamed because tomcat has this name hard coded somewhere) and putting commons-logging-adapters-1.1.jar into webapp\WEB-INF\lib, it's all good.

Marc, What jar are you talking about? I have a similar problem. Got log4j working with my application based on spring running on tomcat 5.5.17 but have troubles to set up logging for Spring/Whatever is using commons logging in my log4j xml. Searching on the net reveals that this might be tomcat/commons-logging problems, but following various suggestions didn't help me. I won't put here various configuration files as they are correct (working with my app./ log file gets created - appender for spring only, but no logging messages for spring goes into it nor to anywhere else). I have commons-logging-api.jar in $TOMCAT_HOME.bin (v 1.0.4) log4j.1.2.4.jar + commons-loggin.jar in WEB-INF/lib. No other log4j configuration/jars lying around neither is set in tomcats configs. I also tried it with spring's jpetstore sample application, but didn't work either. Does anybody have any idea? Or an idea how to try to discover the problem (no logging, no pointers)?
