Please answer at Stackoverflow, and I'll report the results back to this list:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19261727/in-tomcat-juli-do-the-facility-specific-loggers-become-per-webapp-logger-root This intent behind this question is very similar to that asked in 2011: "How to externalize a webapp's logging.properties?", but it was never adequately answered: http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=131831958930163&w=2 In general, I'm really grumpy when I have to unpack a WAR and fiddle with some files **each time** I deploy it. If there is some more-general mechanism for allowing a deployer (remember those things called 'roles' from the EJB 1.0 spec, anyone?) to override configuration settings which have unfortunately been embedded in the WAR file, I'd **love** to know about it. I haven't spotted anything about this in the Tomcat doco so far. thanks, *David Bullock*
