There's a console appender, which will output log information to the console. If you are running it in linux, you could output the console information to a file. Best Regards. Xi Yuxiang -Original Message- From: Dean A. Hoover [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 200373 15:22 To: Log4J

OK, with my current configuration, I *am* seeing output in catalina.out. However, its not formatted the way I (think I) told it to. Also, I would prefer to have the output go to a separate log file, as there is just too much stuff in catalina.out to wade through. Anyway, I am using RH9,

My suggestion would be to start tomcat and set the log4j.debug property to true. The extra command line argument is -Dlog4j.debug=true This should show which configuration file log4j load if it loads one at all. If your config file is found, you should also see log4j parsing it. BTW, your
