commons-logging.properties not being found

[Jerry Jalenak <Je...@LABONE.com>]

I'm in the process of implementing logging in my webapps using log4j.  I've
created a commons-logging.properties as follows:

	org.apache.commons.logging.Log =
org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JCategoryLog

In my log4j.properties I've got

	log4j.debug = true
	log4j.disableOverride = false
	log4j.disable = INFO

	#
	# rootLogger - log all messages
	#

	log4j.rootLogger = DEBUG, rootLoggerDest
	log4j.appender.rootLoggerDest = org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
	log4j.appender.rootLoggerDest.layout =
org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
	log4j.appender.rootLoggerDest.layout.ConversionPattern = %d %t %-5p
%c - %m%n

Both of these files are in my /WEB-INF/classes directory.  When ever I try
to log something, I do get a message on my Tomcat console, but it is
apparently using the SimpleLog format that is the standard for
commons-logging.  I've been through the mail archives but didn't find a good
example or explanation as to why this isn't working.  I've also looked at
Chuck's chapter on logging, as well as the log4j doc - haven't really found
anything relevant.  What am I doing wrong?

TIA,
