Handler error in SLF4JBridgeHandler in tomcat logs

问题

My tomcat logs currently has a mix of log messages in different formats. So I am trying to set up SLF4J using JUL-to-SLF4J bridge.

I was initially getting log messages like

May 23, 2013 7:57:17 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService startInternal
INFO: Starting service Catalina
May 23, 2013 7:57:17 PM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardEngine startInternal
INFO: Starting Servlet Engine: Apache Tomcat/7.0.29
2013-05-23 19:57:47,224 [localhost-startStop-1] Loading XML bean definitions from class path resource [META-INF/cxf/cxf.xml]
2013-05-23 19:57:47,246 [localhost-startStop-1] Loading XML bean definitions from class path resource [META-INF/cxf/cxf-servlet.xml]

I followed a blog from here.. http://hwellmann.blogspot.com/2012/11/logging-with-slf4j-and-logback-in.html

Am using the following jars for SLF4J: jul-to-slf4j-1.7.5.jar, slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar

and in logging.properties

handlers = org.slf4j.bridge.SLF4JBridgeHandler

I am currently not getting mixed messages but on start of tomcat. It is not printing the tomcat format, but it throws Handler error

Below is a snippet of the logs

I have been on this problem for days, tried a lot of combinations, but couldnt find any luck with it.

Thanks in Advance!

Just create or edit CATALINA_HOME/bin/setenv.sh for Linux:

CLASSPATH=$CATALINA_HOME/bin/jul-to-slf4j-1.7.5.jar:\  
$CATALINA_HOME/bin/slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar

or CATALINA_HOME\bin\setenv.bat for Windows:

set CLASSPATH=%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\jul-to-slf4j-1.7.5.jar;^
%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\slf4j-api-1.7.5.jar
