FileAppender file path in a web app

[Keith Rogers <ke...@mouchelparkman.com>]

How would I specify a path for file appenders to use in a web-app? I can
specify an absolute path, but while this is fine on my development
server, it will be a problem when I deploy to the hosting service we
use, as I don't know what the file structure is above our application
directory. What I'd really like is to just be able to specify
/web-inf/logs/debug.log 

I've tried using relative filenames, but this does not seem to work.
