tomcat logging

[Don]

Hi,

I'm writing a JSP application hosted by Tomcat. Currently, all my
System.out messages are logged in \logs\stdout.log, but I would like
to store them in a separate file.

I tried adding:

<Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.SystemOutLogger />

to server.xml, in the hope that this would store the application's
System.out messages in logs\catalina.out, but it didn't appear to
work. Please send any suggestions to domurtag_AT_cs.tcd.ie

Thanks in advance,
- Dónal

I strongly recommend you to check log4j
(http://logging.apache.org/log4j) and wrap it with some custom tag.

IMHO not needed, this should work:

<% log( "message" ); %>

Although I agree that it's more appropriate to put this into a custom tag.
This could then look like:

<mytags:log>message</mytags:log>

You should look up the tomcat-user mail list on http://www.mail-archive.com
I am sure you will find the answer you need.

If it your application - consider Log4j or (for 1.4 and up) standard
java logging
take a look on http://jakarta.apache.org/taglibs/doc/log-doc/log-1.0/index.html#summary
