Hi!
I can tell you you are not alone!
Here's the repsonse to my questions about 2 weeks ago:
------------
Set
log.file=/var/log/jserv.trace
and make sure it is writable by the user as whom apache is run, e.g.,
touch /var/log/jserv.trace
chown httpd:httpd /var/log/jserv.trace
Then look in /var/log/jserv.trace to get the extra errors.
(Use the path to your log files instead of "/var/log".)
You'll also need to enable the servlet log channel by adding
log.channel.servletLog=true
to your jserv properties file. The messages should then show up in the
jserv.trace file (they do for me).
