Chris is correct, Tomcat will use java.util.logging if it doesn't find log4j (and TC 6 won't even look for log4j by default). So all you have to do is to configure java.util.logging for your application. If you want to use Tomcat's Juli implementation, then you need to configure that for your entire application as well by starting it with: -Djava.util.logging.manager=org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager

In our current configuration, these messages are fed to the console. Although the warnings do not affect the performance of our product, they are confusing to our users. Now, I'd like to output _everything_ from tomcat to a logfile instead of the console, and I do _not_ want to use log4j. Any other method is fine, and java.util.logging would be prefereable (this shouldn't be a problem with commons-logging, right?). I've googled terms like "embedded tomcat java.util.logging" and less specific terms since yesterday, and there's tons of info on how to configure tomcat logging. But it all seems to be for file-configuration of "regular" tomcat installations (as opposed to embedded), and I haven't gotten any of the examples to work. I've also tried to alter our invocation of tomcat, but alas I have not found any way in the API of supplying an existing Logger-object or define which logger object to use programatically either. So, how do I set up tomcat to log _everything_ to commons-logging -> java.util.logging.Logger? Can this be configured by config-files (which ones, and how???), or do I have to make these settings from our invoking code? Does anyone know of any how-tos or guides that touch on the issue of logging from embedded tomcat? /Magnus --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
