I switched the common.loader as you suggested above, and indeed the log4j.properties file is now found in the ${catalina.base}/lib directory. So a good start. Now, however, I am running into a configuration discrepancy between logging.properties and the equiv log4j.properties/log4j.xml. I was having trouble with getting the log4j.properties to "mirror" the logging.properties, so I swtiched to log4j.xml, but am running into the same problem: My webapp uses log4j to log data to stdout. When using Juli (in the default configuration), everything that is displayed in stdout is logged to catalina.out. However, when I switch to log4j, this doesn't seem to be the case; only data that is logged by tomcat is logged to my catalina.out; anything my webapp is logging to stdout isn't captured in the file. Original logging.properties (edited non relevant portions for brevity - but is the default logging.properties file) handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler .handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler ############################################################ # Handler specific properties. # Describes specific configuration info for Handlers. ############################################################ 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = FINE 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = catalina. java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINE java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter So - from that, I read that everything (ie: .handlers) is logged to 1catalina and ConsoleHandler. So far so good. I tried to replicate this in a log4j.properties/xml with the following log4j.xml: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM "log4j.dtd"> <log4j:configuration xmlns:log4j='http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/'> <appender name="STDOUT" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender"> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{ISO8601} %-5p %c{5} - %m%n" /> </layout> </appender> <!-- stdout logger to catalina.log file --> <appender name="CatalinaLog" class="org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender"> <param name="file" value="${catalina.base}/logs/catalina.log" /> <param name="append" value="true" /> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{ISO8601} %-5p %c{5} - %m%n" /> </layout> </appender> <!-- Default logger for the entire system --> <root> <level value="INFO" /> <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" /> <appender-ref ref="CatalinaLog" /> </root> </log4j:configuration> However, I'm not getting the same response. I would have thought that the log4j's root logger was the equi of the "." logger with juli. Howver, like I said, I don't get any of the webapp's stdout logging routed to my CatalinaLog appender/file. Am I missing something obvious here? Is there a way to mirror juli's logging with log4j?
