How to make org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor to log in custom log file

In the application that am working on org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor is currently logging HTTP request/responses into catalina.out.

I want it to somehow duplicate this info into a separate log file. Any pointers of how to do this?

The settings provided by OP's answer also worked for me(thanks!) however I had to change the LoggingOutInterceptor class name to the class that was was was running the service.

So instead of the following:

log4j.logger.org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingOutInterceptor=INFO, queryLog
log4j.additivity.org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingOutInterceptor=true

I needed to have this:

log4j.logger.org.apache.cxf.services=INFO, outgoingSOAPMessages
log4j.additivity.org.apache.cxf.services=true

Just thought I'd post in case it helps anyone in the future.

Wanted to share final solution that worked nicely for me.

Added following to the application's log4j.properties

log4j.logger.org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingOutInterceptor=INFO, queryLog
log4j.additivity.org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingOutInterceptor=true

log4j.logger.org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor=INFO, queryLog
log4j.additivity.org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor=true

# Query log
log4j.appender.queryLog=org.apache.log4j.DailyRollingFileAppender 
log4j.appender.queryLog.File=/C:/Eclipse-Tomcat/logs/query.log
log4j.appender.queryLog.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.queryLog.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%t] %-5p %c %x - %m%n
log4j.appender.queryLog.DatePattern = '.'yyyy-MM-dd
log4j.category.queryLogger=INFO, queryLog

This basically works great for me, input/output HTTP request responses are logged in catalina.out as well as query.log Logs get rotated daily as well.

Depending on the logging framework you are using, you should properly configure the log4j, slf4j or <tomcat>/conf/logging.properties file to set a specific appender for the org.apache.cxf.interceptor.LoggingInInterceptor class.

According to the Javadoc, you could declare a new PrintWriter in the LoggingInInterceptor constructor :

File file = new File("/directory/mylogs.txt");
file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
PrintWriter printWriter = new PrintWriter(file);
LoggingInInterceptor loggingInInterceptor = new LoggingInInterceptor(printWriter);
