When you say Rampart, do you  mean http://ws.apache.org/rampart/ ? And where can 
  I find rampart 1.5 RC1 ?

I then copied the latest slf4j slf4j-api-1.5.8.jar and slf4j-log4j12-1.5.8.jar into the apache-tomcat-6.0.20\webapps\axis2\WEB-INF\lib folder.  With the commons-logging.properties entry and the log4j.properties files I thought that log4j was being used as the logging framework.
