--- Comment #1 from Konstantin Kolinko <knst.koli...@gmail.com> ---
1. I do not like adding details like that to an exception message.
As can be seen from the stackoverflow link, the error message is being shown to
a visitor of a web site.
Showing them installation details is a bad idea.
2. It should be possible to add a log statement.
E.g. the actual path of a directory.
Though note that
a. There exists a
org.apache.catalina.startup.VersionLoggerListener
It already logs valuable information.
b. A care would better be taken to do not flood the logs.
It should not be logged more often than usual JSP compilation errors, when
Jasper is configured with development=false.
> 1) say which folder is attempted to be created
The "catalina.base" directory is logged.
It is possible to derive the rest of the path from there.
> 2) what userId the current tomcat is running under
This will be logged if VersionLoggerListener is configured with logProps=true.
The "user.name" property is it.
Maybe it is worth to improve VersionLoggerListener to log a value of the
"user.name" property unconditionally, by default.
Though if Tomcat is launched via jsvc, Tomcat may initialize under one user,
and then start under another one.

> 3) what permission rights are found on the super-directory
A failing File.mkdirs() call does not provide such details.
Also, what is meant by permissions differs between operating systems.
