Use org.apache.catalina.FileLogger

Question

Hi All,
Does any1 know of a neat way to implement the org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger class in a JSP ?
I have referred to a number of sites and all I got was to configure the server.xml file's Context for the org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger class.
But that's not what I want.
What I want is to be able to implement the logging thru JSP code so that I can write my own errors in the log file.
Any suggessions ??
Thanx.

Hi,
you must to try whit this
in the web.xml
<init-param>
     <param-name>FileLog</param-name>
<param-value>/log/logfile.log</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
     <param-name>log4j-init-conf</param-name>
<param-value>log4j.properties</param-value>
</init-param>
in your class
String directory = this.getServlet().getInitParameter("FileLog");
System.out.print(directory);
System.setProperty("log.directory", directory);
String prefix = this.getServlet().getServletContext().getRealPath("/");
String file = this.getServlet().getInitParameter("log4j-init-conf");
System.out.println(prefix+file);
if(file == null|| file.trim().length()==0 ||(new File(prefix+file).isFile())){
System.out.println("ERROR: no se puede leer el archivo ");
