<subsection name="2.4.6 Logging and error messages" anchor="logging">
<p>If JMeter detects an error, a message will be written to the log
file.
- The log file name is defined in the jmeter.properties file.
- It is normally defined as <b>jmeter.log</b>, and will be found
in the JMeter startup directory, i.e. bin.
+ The log file name is defined in the jmeter.properties file (or
using the -j option, see below).
+ It defaults to <b>jmeter.log</b>, and will be found in the
directory from which JMeter was launched.
+ [in JMeter 2.2 and earlier, this was forced to be the JMeter
bin directory.]
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ JMeter 2.2.1 added a new command-line option, -j jmeterlogfile.
+ This is processed after the initial properties file is read,
+ and before any further properties are processed.
+ It therefore allows the default of jmeter.log to be overridden.
+ The jmeter scripts that take a test plan name as a parameter
(e.g. jmeter-n.cmd) have been updated
+ to define the log file using the test plan name,
+ e.g. for the test plan Test27.jmx the log file is set to
Test27.log.
</p>
<p>When running on Windows, the file may appear as just
<b>jmeter</b> unless you have set Windows to show file extensions.
[Which you should do anyway, to make it easier to detect
viruses and other nasties that pretend to be text files...]
