The %CATALINA_HOME%\conf\logging.properties got changed according to <https://serverfault.com/questions/252934/how-to-redirect-tomcat-console-log-to-files-tomcat-started-via-windows-bat> as: handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler, 2localhost.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler, 3manager.org.apache.juli.Async FileHandler, 4host-manager.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler # .handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler .handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.AsyncFileHandler ... cut ... Still stdout and stderr goes to the console. The redirection "2>&1 >test.log" creates the empty file but no output is there. > Third, > If you app is actually calling System.err.println(), see about > "swallowOutput" setting here > https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.0-doc/logging.html#Console > https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.0-doc/config/context.html Will try that next thank you! ---rony
