These are instructions for using Log4j with Tomcat.  It would enable you to
control the files that Tomcat creates with log content.  This includes
files like catalina.yyyy-mm-dd.log, localhost.yyyy-mm-dd.log and other
files that by default have the date in their name, however it does not
allow you to control catalina.out.

The catalina.out file represents anything written to STDOUT or STDERR by
Tomcat or your applications.  This would include things like an application
directly writing to System.out or System.err or an application that is
configured to log to STDOUT / STDERR or as some logging framework's call it
the console.

If you have application's writing to STDOUT / STDERR directly, you can use
Tomcat's "swallowOutput" option to capture this output and run it through
the logging system.

  http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/context.html

If you have applications that are logging to STDOUT / STDERR, you can
control what's logged by editing the application specific logging
configuration or by instructing them to log to a file and not STDOUT /
STDERR.

For the record, Tomcat writes very little to STDOUT / STDERR and it doesn't
use EHCache so it's almost certain that the exception you're seeing is
coming from an application.
