Hi Bastian, I've personally not had any issue with Tomcat 4.0.3. Normally commons-logging is quite flexible and would try various configs before failing.
I think the best way is to report this to commons-dev and try to find the solution with the commons-logging folks. I don't think it is related to Cactus and I'm not expert enough in commons-logging to provide you right-away with an answer. As a trial, can you try to do *exactly* what was in the tomcat howto (just to verify if it works in your environment)?
