Hi apache-tomcat-6.0.36 CentOS uname -m = i686 uname -r = 2.6.18-028stab070.14-ent uname -s = Linux :-) jdk1.6.0_07
I have recently upgraded my production server from apache-tomcat-6.0.18 to 6.0.36 so that my live and dev env's are as similar as possible 6.0.18 runs fine and logs as expected, this version was already installed when I started renting the server from the hosting company, it runs as user tomcat under jsvc. I compiled jsvc from the source included in the 6.0.36 distro following the instructions in the tomcat docs and copied /etc/init.d/tomcat6 (the old start/stop script) to /etc/init.d/tomcat. I modified the file to point to the new version and started the server /etc/init.d/tomcat has been pasted at http://pastebin.com/ihGDJb1C for your perusal should you wish. Actually Tomcat runs fine, it serves my site and carries a good load (200+ sessions concurrently with no apparent degradation) there is no Apache front end, Tomcat runs standalone. The problem is with the logging /etc/init.d/tomcat has the following two lines -outfile $CATALINA_HOME/logs/catalina.out \ -errfile $CATALINA_HOME/logs/catalina.err \ And here's the problem. Most of the logging output ends up in catalina.err even though there are no errors in the logs occasionally a few lines from my application loggers end up in catalina.out. I also have logging.properties in WEB-INF/classes. This has been around ever since I deployed the first version of my app a couple of years ago and has always produced the expected output. Now I get nothing. The hosting companies preferred solution is to recompile tomcat 'for a one off fee' (I kid you not). I'm pretty sure that Tomcat doesn't need rebuilding to run under jsvc and if it does I'm quite capable of building it myself, so no help there then ... logging.properties reproduced below just FYI if you want it. Any advice on how I can get the logging working will be much appreciated Lyallex handlers = org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler ############################################################ # Handler specific properties. # Describes specific configuration info for Handlers. ############################################################ org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = ALL org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = MyApp. java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = ALL java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter
