OK.  I changed that... and I'm working my way through the Log4J
docs to better understand how it works...

OK.  I also figured out that it works if i specify the absolute
path /var/log/tomcat/mywebapp.log

I thought that if i only specify the filename, by default it
would arrive in /var/log/tomcat/ but apparently this is not the
case.

Anyway, my problem seems solved. All i have to do now is continue
reading the Log4J docs to better understand and configure my
logging :-)

Thanks!
Bart
