Hi Thomas,
Yes I have reference in the catalina.sh to the log4j.properties file:
LOGGING_CONFIG="-Djava.util.logging.config.file=$CATALINA_BASE/conf/log4j.properties"
this is what I get in the catalina.out on restart:
INFO: Configuring Log4j from File:
/data/apache-tomcat-6.0.29/webapps/application/WEB-INF/etc/log4j-configuration.xml
19/04/2011 4:16:24 PM org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationContext log
INFO: Log4J context Initialized
where log4j-configuration.xml is the application XML file located as given
in the above log line. So that is being loaded ok.
If I remove CONSOLE from the list of root loggers, isn't this going to
prevent anything from being logged in the catalina.out file? I would like to
keep the useful info from the restart process.
Thanks,
Igor
