How to set Log4J debug flag in Tomcat
How do I start tomcat as an application (not a service) and set the
log4j debug commandline parameter?
I tried editing startup.bat to prepend -Dlog4j.debug to %CMD_LINE_ARGS%,
but I get the following error on startup, and I don't see any log4j
debug output:
usage: java org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina [ -config {pathname} ]
[ -nonaming ] { start | stop }
Thanks for any help.

Sounds like your added switch gets added at the end, after the -jar.
I don't have a Windows Tomcat handy, but you might try to add it in JAVA_OPTS instead, like JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Dlog4j.debug"
(Unix version)
Maybe in sentenv.bat, if it exists ?

LOGGING:
Create a file called log4j.properties with the following content
and save it into common/classes.
log4j.rootLogger=DEBUG,R
log4j.appender.R=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.R.MaxFileSize=10MB
log4j.appender.R.MaxBackupIndex=10
log4j.appender.R.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.R.layout.ConversionPattern=%p %t %c - %m%
--Container specific
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost]=DEBUG,
--core specific
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.core=DEBUG, R
--session specific
log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.session=DEBUG, R
Download Log4J
(v1.2 or later) and place the log4j jar in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib.
Download Commons Logging and place the commons-logging-x.y.z.jar
(not commons-logging-api-x.y.z.jar) in $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib with
the log4j jar.Start Tomcat
