: We're using Jetty also, so I get the sense I'm looking at the : wrong log file.
if you are using the jetty configs that comes in the solr downloads, it writes all of the solr log messages to stdout (ie: when you run it on the commandline, the messages come to your terminal). i don't know off the top of my head how to configure Jetty to log application log messages to a specific file ... there may be jetty specific config options ofr controlling this, or jetty may expect you to explicitly set the system properties that tell the JVM default log manager what you wnat it to do... http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/logging/overview.html : On that note -- I've read that Jetty isn't the best servlet : container to use in these situations, is that your experience? i can't make any specific recommendations ... i use Resin because someone else at my work did some research and decided it's worth paying for. From what i've seen tomcat seems easier to configure then jetty and i had an easier time understanding it's docs, but i've never done any performance tests. -Hoss
