We use this for logging:

	PropertyConfigurator.
			configure(WOApplication.application().
					  resourceManager().
					  pathURLForResourceNamed("log4j.properties", "app", null));
		
		
		// Setting up logging
		NSLog.Log4JLogger debug =
			new NSLog.Log4JLogger(Logger.getLogger("debug"),
								  NSLog.DebugLevelDetailed);
		
		NSLog.Log4JLogger err =
			new NSLog.Log4JLogger(Logger.getLogger("err"),
								  NSLog.DebugLevelCritical);
		
		NSLog.Log4JLogger out =
			new NSLog.Log4JLogger(Logger.getLogger("out"),
								  NSLog.DebugLevelInformational);
		
		NSLog.setErr(err);
		NSLog.setOut(out);
		NSLog.setDebug(debug);
		
         NSLog.out.appendln("Logger configured"); // we use NSLog, which 
is redirected to log4j


Hope this help
