I am trying to get my application to log to a separate file with the following log4j.properties (server is tomcat6 in netbeans). I enabled the following in my wicketapplication.
getRequestLoggerSettings().setRequestLoggerEnabled(true); What I find is that catalina.{date}.out logs the requests correctly, but I get tomcat startup info in my logfile and then nothing else. Any ideas?
