It's killing me though that I can't get any failure/exception messages. If it were logging out somewhere else, I'm not sure where that would be.

Are you catching Throwable or Exception, and did you wrap everything in the try block? The only reason for you to see your first log message but not your second is because an exception is being thrown somewhere between the two. If you catch Throwable you will intercept it, if you catch Exception you won't.
If I were to take a wild guess at the cause of your problem the most likely explanation would be invalid XML data being generated by your component page, possibly an unescaped &, < or > character in some data you are using in production but not in development.
