You could log all requests using the access log valve: <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt" pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>
(more about at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/printer/valve.htm l) And then filter the log file searching for the illegal requests.

By illegal requests I mean those that have return status code other than 200, i.e.. 404 (Page Not Found) 403 (Forbidden), 408 (Request Timeout). I am using log4j 1.2.9. I display a custom error page for the above status codes and should be able to create a custom error jsp page that will log those requests, but there must be a better way of doing this.
