I had a similar problem with log4j. We host our webapp for various customers, an instance (host) per customer, therefore the same code for each customer. I tried sharing log4j.jar in shared/lib, but found all customer loading into the same log file - very confusing. My solution was to put log4j.jar in WEB-INF/lib of each instance, along with individual log4j.properties files and setting different file paths in the properties files. Only solution I could find.

IIRC, there is no way to obtain the application context path as an environment variable. You should configure Log4j using its APIs, using a ServletContextListener. Probably the best way is to load the "log4j.properties" file and modify only the property that refers to the path of the file, then configure Log4j.
