Re[4]: stopping logging after removing context in Tomcat prob
lem...
I don't know if this relevant or correct but it seems to me that Tomcat
contexts have to be reloadable and crossContext. As in:
<Context path="/xyz" docBase="xyz" debug="0" reloadable="true"
crossContext="true">
This is in the file conf/server.xml.
Hope this helps,

Re[5]: stopping logging after removing context in Tomcat prob lem...
Posted by Jacob Kjome <ho...@visi.com>.
Hello Ceki,
I created a ServletContextListener and can now successfully call
LogManager.shutdown() at context shutdown. The Javadoc doesn't have much to say about
this method. What exactly does it shut down because the Log4j jar file is still
reported as a being in use so my ant "clean" target fails since it
can't delete the log4j jar???
