ack!  .. you are right, i missed some... like in ConnectionFactory the log 
object
variable is called just "cat"....

this time i will comment all import statements of commons log:

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;

and also search for all occurrences of LogFactory and check manually to make
sure any static log variables are commented out (i found some that i missed
because of spacing differences).

i will compile again and see.

but to answer your question, using the unmodified DbForms.jar my application
would not work if i placed the log4j.jar and commons-logging.jar in
my_app/WEB-INF/lib folder.  the Tomcat console would display Exceptions forever
like an endless loop and i had to kill Tomcat (5.5.9 is the version i'm using).

the only solution was to place log4j.jar and commons-logging.jar into
${Tomcat}/common/lib.  only after doing this would the errors go away and 
DbForms
work properly.  but placing these 2 jars in common/lib effects all other web
applications deployed on the same Tomcat instance.  i have many other web apps
deployed that do not use log4j logging, and this has caused the JCL (plain 
Jakarta
Commons Logging which uses JDK logging) logging to stop working... because it
sees Log4J and just assumes this is the logging system for everything because
it is in common/lib.
