Excellent! My application deploys with no exceptions - however (and now I'm venturing into the Log4j side of things) I don't appear to be producing any log output at all.
Dennis, if I could bother you one more time - I'm not sure how much of a Log4j expert you are, but here is the log4j.xml file I've created (modified from one I found online). When I deploy my war file and the servlet initializes, it should produce logging output. In my log4j.xml file, I've specified log file to be 'DailyFileAppender' types located in the 'log' directory. However, after deploying my webapp, I can't find my log files anywhere on my machine. Where did I go wrong? Thanks for your help!

You should use this line instead: org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger > How do I tell commons-logging to use Log4j (or do I not tell it since it > looks for it by default)? It's better to specify the logging implementation, if you want to be in control. Otherwise the logging implementation chosen by commons-logging might differ, for example on different servers like development and production. > > Thanks, > > Darren > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Dennis Lundberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 2:41 PM > To: Jakarta Commons Users List > Subject: Re: turning on debugging with commons logging > > Darren Hall wrote: >> Greeting all, >> >> >> >> I'm having a hard time turning on debugging in Apache struts (which is > using >> commons logging). >> >> I know this should be easy to do, however I'm having a hard time finding > the >> information on the web. >> >> Can anyone here tell me how to configure commons logging so that it will >> display DEBUG level statements, please (currently it displays on INFO > level >> and above)? > > This all depends on what underlying logging implementation that your app > or Struts is using.
