I was mainly concerned with what you appender configuration looked like,
in case you misconfigured something there and therefore were getting no
logs due to that.

Is your configuration file similar to that described in
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/logging.html#Using_Log4j?

Given the output on startup:

> log4j: Handling log4j.additivity.org.apache.catalina=[null]

I suspect that log4j is actually being loaded and configured, though :)

I don't believe you need to set LOGGING_CONFIG to anything: I believe
LOGGING_CONFIG is only used for the JULI configuration (which is
mutually exclusive to using log4j).

Try significantly simplifying your environment and configuration:

0. Shut-down Tomcat and delete all files from logs/
1. Don't deploy any webapps... just work with Tomcat itself for now
2. Remove all appenders except for a single FileAppender,
   point that to a writable file, set the log level to INFO
3. Make sure you have:

   log4j.rootCategory=INFO,[appendername]

Start up Tomcat and see if you get anything in your log file. There
should be a few INFO messages in there.

If that doesn't work, please post your whole (simplified as described
above) log file and a complete dump of:

1. logs/catalina.out
2. logs/*   (any other files that are created on startup,
   even if they are empty)
