I have added lines to my logging.properties for Tomcat: 6solr.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = FINE 6solr.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs 6solr.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = solr.
org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].[/solr].level = INFO org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].[/solr].handlers = 6solr.org.apache.juli.FileHandler and added "6solr.org.apache.juli.FileHandler" to the handlers line. Is there something that I'm missing? The logs still go to the catalina.out file. -- Chris On Mon, Sep 20, 2010 at 4:54 PM, Christopher Gross <cogr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks Jak!
