What do you think of this opinion: I am inclined to use the JDK1.4 logger just because it's included in rt.jar, thus fewer jars and shorter classpath, and all that.
-----Original Message----- From: Collins, Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, February 19, 2003 9:44 AM To: 'Tomcat Users List' Subject: RE: Best Logging practices I would not recommend using commons-logging in a web-app. If you want to separately configure the logging requirements of an application you have to deploy it with its own logging properties file (log4j.properties for log4j). For commons-logging to pick up your apps logging properties file you need to deploy commons-logging.jar in yourapp/WEB-INF/lib. This should not be a problem however having commons-logging.jar in yourapp/WEB-INF/lib and common/lib causes Tomcat to crash. I have had this problem and so have a number of other people. So avoid the heartache of this and log directly to log4j or the JDK1.4 logger.
