Hi,
Attributes are case-sensitive: it's swallowOutput, not SwallowOutput or
another variant.

I am trying to redirect standard out to a different file for a
particular application.  I have tried to set up a context.xml file but
everything is still being written to catalina.out.
 
server.xml

Thanks in Advance,

RE: logging question

[Shapira, Yoav]

Hi,
Just adding a Logger is not enough to redirect System.out.println calls
to it.  You need to add swallowOutput="true" to your Context definition.
Or alternatively change the code from using System.out.println to using
getServletContext().log(...).

Windows XP, TC 4.1.29 and logging question (catalina.out)...

[Timothy Stone]

List,

I must be too close to the problem, having a background in managing 
Tomcat on Linux, I can't seem to figure out what is so drastically 
different about Tomcat on Windows that logging doesn't behave the same.

Specifically:

c:\%tomcat_home%\bin\startup.bat

runs in a separate window (expected) but only the following logs are 
being generated:

localhost_examples*
localhost_admin*
localhost_log*
'catalina* is conspicuously missing. However, the Logger is defined in 
the server.xml file! There is some standard out logging going on, but 
not to a file.

What directive am I missing? The archives didn't seem to answer my 
question directly. The server.xml file seems to implied that the global 
logger could be overridden, but I have not explictly stated any such 
overriding the server.xml is "out-of-the-box."

Many thanks in advance.

RE: basic logging question

[Mike Curwen]

Do you have the log4j.jar file anywhere?  It would be difficult to do
log4j logging with out it in Tomcat's common/lib
 
Here is a basic configuration file I use, placed under my webapp's
WEB-INF/classes:

#log4j.properties
log4j.rootCategory=DEBUG, filer, chainsaw

log4j.appender.filer=org.apache.log4j.FileAppender
log4j.appender.filer.File=c:/webapps/IDM/WEB-INF/logs/output.log
# Control the maximum log file size
# log4j.appender.filer.MaxFileSize=100KB
# Archive log files (one backup file here)
# log4j.appender.filer.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.filer.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.filer.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p [%t] %c.%M() - %m
(%rms)%n


log4j.appender.chainsaw=org.apache.log4j.net.SocketAppender
log4j.appender.chainsaw.RemoteHost=localhost
log4j.appender.chainsaw.Port=4445
log4j.appender.chainsaw.LocationInfo=true

#log4j.appender.dest1=org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
#log4j.appender.dest1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
#log4j.appender.dest1.layout.ConversionPattern=%-5p [%t] %c - %m (%rms)


 

Note the fully qualified path here:
c:/webapps/IDM/WEB-INF/logs/output.log
 
That should change for your file to an appropriate value, and I'm fairly
certain this file should exist already (seems to me I had to create this
file before log4j would write to it)
 
If anyone can show me how to set this as a 'runtime' property (ie: from
a servlet context, determine the 'real path' to the WEB-INF/logs
directory  AND set it in log4j programmaticaly) I'd be much obliged.

Don't use tomcat's internal Logger facilities, as they are
container-specific.  Instead, choose between using log4j by yourself or
using the commons-logging that's included with tomcat.

If you want to use commons-logging, in your servlet:

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;

Declare a private static Log:
private static Log theLog;

Then in the init() method of your servlet, or in static initialization:
theLog = LogFactory.getLog(getClass());

Now you can use it.  For more details, read the commons-logging
documentation.

If you want to use log4j directly, the code is fairly similar to the
above, except you don't need a LogFactory, you just have
org.apache.log4j.Logger and its getLogger(...) call.

You will need to configure log4j (read its docs for how to do this) or
commons-logging (read its docs for how to do this) if you find tomcat's
default configuration insufficient (as you likely will).

basic logging question

[a b]

Hello every one,
I need to log messages using either tomcat logger or log4j. I have added
 under the  
tag and System.out.println("msg"); works and prints in the above named file, but i 
want to use 
the methods of org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger or log4j's Logger class so that i 
can turn logging on and off and can use various levels like debug,info,warn,errors 
etc. I tried to import org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger in java servlet, but it 
says class not found. I do have commons-logging under /common/lib folder. 
Please guide me where am i going wrong? also if anyone who has log4j under tomcat, i 
would appreciate their guidance in setting log4j. i did create a example.cf file which 
created configuration information for log4j and placed it under WEB-INF/classes 
folder, but log4j does not picks the configuration. Any ideas would be welcomed.
Thanks

No, it fills the localhost_log.DATE.txt, localhost_admin_log.DATE.txt,
localhost_examples_log.DATE.txt and the catalina.out but of these contains
*my* messages. They are of course written in its own /log dir. I log onto that
machine via ssh and can therefore check the logs.

So what is the remote server doing?  I would assume it's writing logs on
its own machine.  Do you want the remote server to write the logs across
the network to your machine?

Logging Question

[Jan Behrens]

Hello List,

I have just setup a new Tomcat on a remote-machine do deploy my webApp onto. I
am using 4.1.24 LE on a Debian Linux with JDK 1.4.1. As I am still in the
development-process I log alot of messages via System.err to the standard
error-log. This works fine on my Tomcat here at home (4.1.24 on Win2k) as the
server logs all those messages to TOMCAT_HOME\logs\stderr.log - unfortunately
I can't persuaded the remote Tomcat to do same, although both use exactly the
same server.xml and web.xml files.

Can anyone give me a tip as to what I am doing wrong please.

Regards

Jan

i tried to look for documentation to see if tomcat has some logging similar 
to apache so i can see what pages on tomcat is being accessed.

my set up is apache webserver connected to tomcat3.2 by mod_jk on two 
separate freebsd machines. where i can find a log file of what pages are 
being accessed on tomcat?
