Actually, the OP appears to have done that, unlike some... The real question is, has the OP read this: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/logging.html (My guess is that actually has been done as well.) Note that most of the log4j section in the above applies to Tomcat internal logging, not individual webapp logging, except where noted. > Apparently, Tomcat uses an extended the log4j package (JULI) > to support logging across multiple web applications No, JULI is not log4j; JULI is a more flexible replacement for the somewhat restrictive JDK logging mechanism. Internally, Tomcat uses commons-logging, but webapps are free to use whatever they please. > each web application has its own log4j.properties file Look for any more global instances of log4j.properties (or log4j.xml) and get rid of them. > The jar log4j-1.2.14.jar is bundled with the web application > and is located in WEB-INF/lib Verify that you don't have any instances of a log4j*.jar in Tomcat's lib directory and that you have no CLASSPATH environment variable set. > Do I need to import catalina's version of log4j? No, especially since Tomcat doesn't use log4j, unless you modify it to do so. > log4j.appender.archivadebug.File=${catalina.home}/logs/debug.log I'd suggest changing all config lines that refer to debug.log to something unique for each webapp. Have you placed any jars in Tomcat's lib directory that are shared across webapps? If so, and if they are doing any logging, it will use the log4j config of the first webapp to get there. Better to deploy such libraries with each webapp rather than introduce such crosstalk. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
