Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Tomcat Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by YoderJosiah: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Logging The comment on the change is: Added Logging Request Example XML ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * Prior to Tomcat 5.5, Tomcat provided a Logger element that you could configure and extend according to your needs. If you are using a Tomcat version previous to Tomcat 5.5, make sure to read the [http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/logger.html Logger configuration reference]. * Starting with Tomcat 5.5, Logger was removed and [http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging Jakarta Commons-Logging] {{{Log}}} is used everywhere in Tomcat. Read the Commons-Logging documentation if you'd like to know how to better use and configure Tomcat's internal logging. See also [http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/logging.html] + * To enable request logging similar to the Apache HTTP server, you may include the following line in the server.xml file, in the <Engine> tag: + <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" + directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".log" + pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/> + This will produce a log file for each day, such as logs/localhost_access_log.2008-03-10.log, containing the files requested, IP address of the requester, and similar information. + 128.34.123.121 - - [10/Mar/2008:15:55:57 -0500] "GET /upload/ClickPoints.jsp HTTP/1.1" 200 2725 + In addition, Tomcat does not swallow the System.out and System.err JVM output streams. You may use these streams for elementary logging if you wish, but a more robust approach such as commons-logging or [http://logging.apache.org/log4j Log4J] is recommended for production applications. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
