It seems, only log4j can provide a full java.util.logging replacement. As LOGBACK can't replace JUL, I can't use LOGBACK to control WebApplicationLogging centrally, though I'm no longer sure that this might be a good idea, anyway. I learned to control the access log now, so I'm done with my question. -- View this message in context: http://logback.10977.n7.nabble.com/How-to-control-WebApp-logging-by-Tomcat-c...
