I talked to "wltjr" on IRC last night about Tomcat 5.5.17 he was a great help and I am now running it, but I still have some questions / problems.

I have got Tomcat up and running however when I put our webapp in place I get logging errors.

SEVERE: Error deploying web application directory dxc org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: No suitable Log constructor [Ljava.lang.Class;@1589e56 for org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger (Caused by java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Priority) (Caused by org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: No suitable Log constructor [Ljava.lang.Class;@1589e56 for org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger (Caused by java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/log4j/Priority))

I have log4j-1.2.9 emerged so I tried to copy log4j.jar to /usr/share/tomcat-5.5/lib and created a symlink in /usr/share/tomcat-5.5/common/lib

However this caused tomcat to fail and I get no logging at all.

Any idea how I can get by this or what needs to happen application side to allow me to use juli instead.

Thanks for your time,
