Re: Log4J + Torque ... gonna drive me mad.

One thing I forgot.. outside of a app server, I also seem to need a 
commons-logging.properties file (also on the classpath); this is what I use:

> org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.LogFactoryImpl
> org.apache.commons.logging.Log=org.apache.commons.logging.impl.Log4JLogger
