Was that referring to an external daemon, as in jsvc, or the Daemon as part of the class that is called in Bootstrap and responsible for starting Tomcat? Seems odd no one has commented on this so far. Unless it's due to ignorance on my behalf. I am not that familiar with Tomcat source code, or internals on starting and etc. Slowly tracing things down there. So please excuse my lack of knowledge or ignorance there. Now I noticed several classes including Embedded make a System.setErr call. If any of those are invoked as part of Boostrap starting, no clue atm. But seems like if that logic exists in other place. If Boostrap or something it called, invokes doesn't set that. Then it makes a good case that it should be set. Since it's set when Tomcat is started via other means. I have since switched my own apps over to this. It's quite nice and provides me a way to catch what otherwise might have been uncaught exceptions. Via logging them to a file that I have redirected stderr and stdout to. -- William L. Thomson Jr. Gentoo/Java
