Gotcha... So commons-logger is writing to the environment's default logger, which is probably Tomcat's log since I have nothing else in place.
So essentially, I should download Log4J, include the jar in my classpath and create a "Log4J.xml" file. Correct? Ok. For the sake of moving forward, that's the direction I will go in. (Excellent! This will be my first attempt at using Log4J. I've been programming in Java for about 6 years, and somehow managed to avoid ever using Log4J. Let's see how this goes...)

Maybe check what Tomcat uses natively. > -----Original Message----- > From: Darren Hall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 12:39 PM > To: 'Struts Users Mailing List' > Subject: RE: [newb question] Turning on DEBUG level logging > > > Thanks George. > > I looked at the link you provided and it seems to pertain to > Log4J information.
