[logback-user] logback-classic and Tomcat

[Ceki Gulcu]

Hello Zach,

In principle, as far as logback-classic configuration is concerned, the same 
configuration applies for application deployed under Tomcat or Jetty.

Note that Tomcat redirects console output to a file called catalina.out under 
$TOMCAT_HOME/logs/ directory. Have you looked there?

HTH,
