The "FooLogger does not implement Log" exception error is a little bit misleading in Commons Logger 1.0.3. The most common cause is that you have two copies of commons-logging available in the class loader hierarchy visible to your web application (perhaps one copy inside the webapp and once copy inside the container). That kind of configuration is not supported, and leads to this error *sometimes* based on the order that classes get loaded in. The root cause to this problem is that a class Foo loaded from one class loader is *not* the same class as class Foo loaded from a different class loader, even if the bytecodes are identical. If you want to try an experiment, could you grab the latest nightly build of commons-logging (essentially equivalent to what will become 1.0.4 soon) at: http://cvs.apache.org/builds/jakarta-commons/nightly/commons-logging/ and try that? Among other things, we have enhanced the LogConfigurationException error message if this (two copies of the logging classes) is indeed the cause of the problem. If it is, you are going to need to arrange things such that there is only one copy of commons-logging.jar, and put your log4j.jar in the same place.
