That "commons" is a wrapper that autoselects either java.util.logging or log4j See http://commons.apache.org/logging/ logging.properties is configuration file for java.util.logging. Dropping in log4j*.jar is enough to confuse the wrapper so that effectively logging.properties is not used at all. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
