The log file configured by the <Valve> element in your example below will *only* log requests to the default webapp (i.e. the one that handles requests that could not be matched to any other defined context path). In order to understand the existence of the lines above, think about what happens when the user enters a URL like: http://www.mycompany.com:8080 (assuming you've got Tomcat running on port 8080). Tomcat will redirect (i.e. send status code 302) this request to: http://www.mycompany.com:8080/ which will end up trying to display your configured welcome file. > thanks, > ChrisC > Craig > > [server.xml] > > <Context path="/" docBase="ROOT" debug="0" > reloadable="true" > > <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" > directory="logs" prefix="ROOT_access_log." suffix=".txt" > pattern="common" resolveHosts="true"/> > </Context> > > > > > > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-user-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> > For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-user-help@;jakarta.apache.org> > > -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-user-unsubscribe@;jakarta.apache.org> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:tomcat-user-help@;jakarta.apache.org>
