Verify that you have separate log4j.properties files in the WEB-INF/classes directories of each webapp, and that there's not a permissions problem with them being accessed by whatever userid Tomcat is running under. > There is definitely a bug here, but I don't know if the > bug is in Tomcat or in Log4j. Where is your log4j.jar located? You should have separate ones in each webapp's WEB-INF/lib directory; if you place log4j.jar in Tomcat's lib directory - or anywhere the common, system, or bootstrap class loaders could find it - you may well end up with the symptoms you're observing. You could try -verbose:class to see where classes are being loaded from, if you want to wade through a whole lot of output. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
