Inspiration

i've never used mondrian by itself. You can use pentaho BI server which is a integrated solution with all you need to run mondrian alog side with jpivot etc. sourceforge.net/projects/pentaho/files/… – Dominate

Answer 1

Do you have log4j jar in your /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/mondrian/WEB-INF/lib/ folder? Cause the class loader id not able to find log4j that you have mentioned in your class path.
