For permanent solution you can set it in $CATALINA_HOME/bin/setenv.sh

#!/bin/bash
CATALINA_OPTS="-Dlog4j.debug=true"

then run tomcat from any command-line $CATALINA_HOME/bin/startup.sh

I'm not sure how you're starting tomcat, but doing:

set CATALINA_OPTS=-Dlog4j.debug=true

And then starting it on the same command line, will do the job.

Hope this helps you
