Github user abhishekagarwal87 commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/1161#issuecomment-190670626 the logs directory resolves to current path (from where the command runs) and not the storm home e.g. I set the `storm.log.dir: logs` in my defaults.yaml and ran it from my home directory. the logs were created inside the home directory. You will have to do something like this in getLogDir() function in ConfigUtils ``` if (new File(dir).isAbsolute()) { return dir; } else { return concatIfNotNull(System.getProperty("storm.home")) + FILE_SEPARATOR + dir); } ```
