Re: [logback-user] Tomcat access logs

      In our production environment, where we have replaced log4j with logback 
under tomcat, I have the following:

Does that help?

I forgot to add that I also have logback-classic-0.9.8.jar in my
.../WEB-INF/lib and TOMCAT_HOME/lib directories.

Hi, I'm having some problems getting Tomcat (version 6.0.14) access logs
to work in conjunction with Logback and my other loggers.
This is what my logback.xml looks like (its exploded into
../WEB-INF/classes/ when I deploy a new .war):
<configuration debug="true">
<!-- specify directories where logs should live -->
    <substitutionProperty name="logEng.log.dir"

</configuration>
My logback configuration works like a charm but I get no access logs under
TOMCAT_HOME/logs
Under TOMCAT_HOME/lib/ I have the usual jars and I've added:
logback-access-0.9.8.jar
logback-core-0.9.8.jar
What should I have under ../WEB-INF/lib/?
I don't have much experience with logging in general (which is probably
apparent :)
Thanks,
Jennifer
