Hello,

I've been trying out the logback-access module as a potential replacement for 
Tomcat's AccessLogValve. I've run into a couple of issues that I'm wondering if 
anyone can help with.


1.       It doesn't look like logback-access has the ability to print the query 
string like the %q value of Tomcat's AccessLogValve does. Am I missing 
something, or are there any workarounds? Unfortunately this is actually a 
dealbreaker for me if I can't make it work, since I need to have query strings 
in my access logs.

2.       This one isn't a dealbreaker, but I'd like to configure one access log 
per webapp in my Tomcat container instead of one access log for all webapps. My 
first thought was that it'd be simple enough to configure the LogbackValve 
under each webapp's Context instead of under the Host element like the 
documentation suggests. However, I got stuck because of the way the 
LogbackValve is looking up its configuration file. I can't put the 
logback-access file in the container's conf directory because I want separate 
configuration per webapp. I also can't specify a relative path to the right 
webapp's folder because it can be in different places in different environments 
(the webapp files might not be in the container's folder at all). If I could 
look the configuration file up on the classpath I think that'd be pretty ideal, 
but from what I can tell it doesn't seem like that's possible.

Any suggestions? I'm loving logback-classic and was excited to see that there 
is a module for access logs as well, but for the time being I think I may have 
to go back to the AccessLogValve.

Thanks in advance.
