I must confess that I'm really upset by this implementation based on log4j.

- Log4j is a *very* complex package, difficult to master. IMO it does not
  make sense to use such a library : logging is meant to *help* developpers
  and administrators and not to cause headaches.
  The first principle of logging should be KISS (keept it stupid simple)

- There is no good documentation on how to use and configure Log4j.
  The short guide by G�lc� is not useful. The complete guide is not free
  (� la JBoss).

- I've spent a lot of time browsing the FAQ, the Wikis, turning around
  many interconnected sites but without finding answers to my questions.

- There is only one (actually 2) document : the tips written by Geoff Mottram.

Well, having given my opinion I feel better ;)

More specifically here is my question :

How to define my log4j properties to obtain what I had with the old plain
Logger ?

<Context path="/try" docBase="try.war" override="true" swallowOutput="true">
        <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
                directory="logs"  prefix="try-" suffix=".log"
                timestamp="true" />
</Context>

I've tried some variations of the following definitions but without success :

log4j.appender.L.File=/home/myself/soft/Tomcat/logs/try.log
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.Catalina.localhost.try=INFO,L

(the last component the path is not very clear "try" or "/try" or something else)

Basically I do not really care about levels but I do want a file by context.
