log4j, Tomcat and WTP Server configuration? [message #210317]

I've configured log4j on tomcat 6.0.14 on Mac OSX as outlined at
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/logging.html.

I've created a dynamic web project (Eclipse 3.3) and integrated it with
the Maven2 plugin as outlined here:
http://www.devx.com/Java/Article/36785/0/page/1

The WTP server is configured such that "catalina.base" is created in the
"workspace" area.

My webapp builds, deploys & runs successfully on the WTP server instance.
However, I see no log files. The "catalina" output goes directly to the
Console view instead of the catalina.log file, or what I've configured in
the $catalina.home/lib/log4j.properties as configured per the first
article. And my log files as configured per my webapp's log4j.properties
file appears nowhere.

When I take the (maven plugin built) .war file and I deploy it onto the
tomcat installation, and start up tomcat via $catalina.home/bin/startup.sh
then I do see my log file. So, the configuration as far as my
log4j.properties, log4j.jar, commons-logging.jar inside of my war file is
correct. However, how do I get this to work with the WTP Server? Any idea,
what configuration piece I'm missing here?

I've tried to add the tomcat-juli-adapters.jar, tomcat-juli.jar &
log4j.properties files all located in $catalina.home to the CLASSPATH of
the WTP server via the "Run Dialog", to no avail.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
