I think I saw several times that the JVM itself may omit generating stacktraces if the same exception is being raised too often. I think it should have printed the full stacktrace for several first occurrences of this error. There is a way to match log messages to access log entries by thread name. The key is to - Configure a FileHandler to use Tomcat's OneLineFormatter 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.formatter = org.apache.juli.OneLineFormatter - Configure AccessLogValve to log thread name with "%I" > 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = SEVERE Note that the above setting filters what log messages are being written out. If you want to filter what log messages are being generated (thus saving some time on processing them), you can set level for a logger, e.g. ".level = SEVERE" for the default log level.
