For debugging purposes I downloaded the zip-version of Tomcat 10.0.18 and start it up using %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup.bat.
This will create by default a separate process (terminal, commandline window) in which Tomcat runs and dispatches all output including stdout and stderr output into that window. By contrast the Windows service installation would redirect stdout and stderr by default to %CATALINA_HOME%\logs\ using "tomcat10-stderr.yyy-mm-dd.log" and "tomcat10-stdout.yyyy-mm-dd.log" as their name. The same would be desired for the "startup.bat" version of Tomcat 10. Searched <https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.0-doc/logging.html> and <https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.0-doc/setup.html> to no avail. Searching the Internet the best I could find was <https://serverfault.com/questions/252934/how-to-redirect-tomcat-console-log-to-files-tomcat-started-via-windows-bat> which indeed redirects the Tomcat startup information to %CATALINA_HOME%\logs\catalina.yyyy-mm-dd.log, but not stdout and stderr which do not get redirected. Using redirections directly in "startup.bat" or "catalina.bat" as suggested further down in the serverfault.com did not yield the desired redirection. Probably I have been doing something wrong in the past hours and not seeing the forest for the trees anymore I kindly request help: what is needed to successfully redirect stderr and stdout to %CATALINA_HOME%\logs after unzipping Tomcat 10 and starting it on Windows using %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup.bat? TIA for any help/pointer! ---rony --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
