Apache Log4j Web Servlet Containers provides support for automatically enabling Log4j in Servlet containers.

Bytecode (Java 8) for Apache Log4j Web Servlet Containers is provided in a separate JAR file like log4j-web-2.14.1.jar.

Source Code files for Apache Log4j IOStreams are provided in both binary packge like apache-log4j-2.14.1-bin.zip and source package like apache-log4j-2.14.1-src.zip. You can download them at Apache Log4j Website.
