Hi, We made more testing and used GS 2.22RC on Tomcat 7 instead of Tomcat 9. Still no writing into the log file. But then we found a couple of RedHat servers that do write log into file. The specifications of the log-writing servers are:
java-1.8.0-openjdk-1.8.0.262.b10-0.el7_8.x86_64 Apache Tomcat/7.0.76 Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.8 (Maipo) Linux 3.10.0-1127.13.1.el7.x86_64 Those servers have different Linux kernel but wouldn't it be odd if that would make a difference? The kernel on the not-log-writing servers is Linux 3.10.0-1127.el7.x86_64 -Jukka Rahkonen- Lähettäjä: Andrea Aime <andrea.a...@geosolutionsgroup.com> Lähetetty: keskiviikko 9. marraskuuta 2022 11.59 Vastaanottaja: Rahkonen Jukka <jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi> Kopio: Jody Garnett <jody.garn...@gmail.com>; geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-users] Geoserver 2.22RC does not write log into file Hi all, I've made a quick test with Apache Tomcat 9.0.55, GeoServer 2.22-RC, data dir still placed in the war file (the default one, not externalized). Changed the logging configuration to DEFAULT, PRODUCTION and GEOSERVER_DEVELOPER_LOGGING, changed also the location of the target file name as an extra test, in all cases I'm getting new lines being logged into the log file...

Geoserver installation was made out of the box with a war file. -Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.8 (Maipo) -Apache Tomcat/9.0.62 -geoserver-22-RC-war Things tested: "-Dorg.apache.logging.log4j.simplelog.StatusLogger.level=DEBUG" and "<Configuration status="debug">" without improvement to the problem. Restarting tomcat or switching the logging profile generates following line to "geoserver.log": 04 Nov 14:49:26 CONFIG [geoserver.logging] - Log4j 2 configuration set to DEFAULT_LOGGING.xml Since that no more lines appear into the log file. "chmod 777" to complete "data" directory did not change anyting. Tomcat is running on tomcat user and complete "webapps/geoserver22" directory is owned by tomcat:tomcat. Tomcat sandboxing is not enabled. Pre geoserver 2.21.x versions have no problems with log writing on this system. I noticed one difference to your test. You wrote that "3. Out of the box logs are going to webapps/geoserver/logs/geoserver.log". In our case the out of the box logs are pointing inside the automatically created data directory, "/var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/geoserver22/data/logs/geoserver.log". -Jukka Rahkonen- Lähettäjä: Jody Garnett <jody.garn...@gmail.com<mailto:jody.garn...@gmail.com>> Lähetetty: tiistai 1. marraskuuta 2022 19.44 Vastaanottaja: Rahkonen Jukka <jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi<mailto:jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi>> Kopio: geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Aihe: Re: [Geoserver-users] Geoserver 2.22RC does not write log into file 1. Trying now: - macOS 13.0 - Tomcat 9.0.68 - geoserver-22-RC-war 2. The war contains license html files, but no top-level RUNNING or README instructions (not sure why) 3. Out of the box logs are going to webapps/geoserver/logs/geoserver.log 4. Changing to GEOSERVER_DEVELOPER_LOGGING.xml 5. So many TRACE logs it is very busy ... So I cannot produce this problem locally Q: Is your tomcat running as different user? Does it have permission to create geoserver.log? Have you enabled tomcat sandboxing to prevent apps modifying webapps folder? -- Jody Garnett On Tue, 1 Nov 2022 at 00:56, Rahkonen Jukka <jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi<mailto:jukka.rahko...@maanmittauslaitos.fi>> wrote: Hi, I wonder why Geoserver does not write log into a file with version 2.22RC that is installed on Linux from war. The default data_dir fallback is in use and therefore the log file should be '/var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/geoserver22/data/logs/geoserver.log'. But when we start Geoserver and use it we can see only this one line in the UI About & Status - GeoServer Logs: 01 Nov 09:00:30 CONFIG [geoserver.logging] - Log4j 2 configuration set to GEOSERVER_DEVELOPER_LOGGING.xml Logging works as supposed with 2.22RC that I installed from bin-zin on Windows. On the Linux server the logging is OK with pre-log4j 2 version 2.20 but both 2.21 and 2.22RC create just that one line log. Any suggestions about what to try next? The production data_dir will not be at /var/lib/tomcat9/webapps/geoserver22/data/ but we use the defaults for fast testing. -Jukka Rahkonen- _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list Please make sure you read the following two resources before posting to this list: -
