[OFF-TOPIC] RE: Tomcat & log4j

["Shapira, Yoav" <Yo...@mpi.com>]

Hi,
I've marked this as off-topic since it's more a log4j question that a
tomcat question.

Are you configuring log4j more than once?  Maybe once with a
BasicConfigurator.configure() and once with a
PropertyConfigurator.configure() call?  That would explain the
additional console appender even though there isn't one in your
properties file.

BTW, do you really specify the level for each and every class in your
properties file, or did you just give one as an example??
