To setup log4j, here's what I did.

Copy the log4j jar file to WEB-INF/lib.  Put it in ${catalina.home}/lib if you 
want all webapps to be able to see this file.

Create a log4j.properties.  Initially this file was in 
WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties.  Now I have the file in 
WEB-INF/lib/myjarfile.jar!log4j.properties (that is, at the root level of the 
jar file).

That's it, if I remember correctly.

When the properties file specifies a relative filename, it appears to be 
relative to ${catalina.home}, so specify for example "logs/myfile.log".
