Undeploying problem with Tomcat 5.5 and Log4J

["Gilbert, Antoine" <AG...@korem.com>]

Hi list

 

I deploy an application WAR on a Tomcat 5.5 instance. This application
use Log4j (via commons-logging) and create some logs in a file within
the related Web app directory (/webapps/myWebApp). The file is defined
by a file appender tag in my log4j.xml file.

 

The problem is when I undeploy this Web app, my Web app directory can't
be deleted because of the log file; it seems to be locked by Tomcat.

 

Any idea?

Do you call LogManager.shutdown() in the shutdown method of a
ServletContextListener?  If not, do so and try again.
