Figured it out...
If I have a common-loggings.properties file in our WEBINF/classes directory
with the single entry...
org.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger
And I have a log4j.properties file in our WEBINF/classes directory with the
following ( modify as needed )
log4j.logger.org.apache.xindice = INFO, org.apache.xindice
log4j.additivity.org.apache.xindice = false
log4j.appender.org.apache.xindice=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.org.apache.xindice.File=c:/application/logs/Xindice/trace_Xindice.txt
log4j.appender.org.apache.xindice.MaxFileSize=3000KB
log4j.appender.org.apache.xindice.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.org.apache.xindice.layout.ConversionPattern=%5p %d [%t] - %m%n
log4j.appender.org.apache.xindice.MaxBackupIndex=1
All the logging goes to the application/logs/Xindice directory.
sweet.
