Hi, I'm trying to get Tomcat to log the output each context individually in its own log file.
I tried using the swallowOutput in my <context> object definition, but am getting some really weird results from it. My webapp uses log4j to do its logging with its own log4j.xml file within the webapp, and all log4j's output is defined as using the org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender. My context.xml file is: conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml: <Context debug="0" reloadable="true" distributable="true" swallowOutput="true"> <ResourceLink name="jdbc/dame" global="jdbc/eppe" type="javax.sql.DataSource" /> <ResourceLink name="mail/dame" global="mail/dame" type="javax.mail.Session" /> </Context> ${catalina.base}/conf/logging.properties: handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, 2localhost.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, 3manager.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, 4admin.org.apach\e.juli.FileHandler, 5host-manager.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, 6root.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler 6root.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = ALL 6root.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs 6root.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = root. org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].[/].level = ALL org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].[/].handlers = 6root.org.apache.juli.FileHandler Based on that configuration (and swallowOutput documentation) I would expect that all logging from my root context would therefor go through 6root.org.apache.juli.FileHandler log file. However, I seem to only be getting some logging captured in the root.log logfile. It is extremely confusing; there doesn't seem to be any pattern. Some webapp logs go to root.log, other still are displayed on stdout, and therefore in catalina.out. Like I said, all log msgs in the webapp use the same log4j ConsoleAppender. I'm running Tomcat 6.0.18. I searched through the changelog for 6.0.19 and 6.0.20 and don't see anything that relates to this, so I am wondering if this is an issue that still exists. Is my configuration wrong?
