RE: Trying to put logs under ${CATALINA_HOME}/logs/
Hi,
Specifying ${catalina.base} or ${catalina.home} should work if you
started tomcat
using bin\startup.bat file as this script converts the environment
variable CATALINA_HOME
into a -D system property on the java command line.
Log4J tries to resolve properties surrounded by ${ and } by calling
System.getProperty
on the value. This will not resolve environment variables, only java
properties specified using -D
See the javadoc on org.apache.log4j.helpers.OptionConvertor substVars
method for more details
If you start tomcat using the supplied windows shortcut which starts
using bin\bootstrap.jar no system
Properties get set by default.
Hope this helps
Andy

Howdy,
log4j.appender.myAppender.File=c:/jakarta-tomcat-4.1.24/logs/my_log.txt
but this doesn't:
log4j.appender.myAppender.File=${CATALINA_HOME}/logs/my_log.txt
Did you try $CATALINA_HOME (on unix) or for your case %CATALINA_HOME%
since you're on NT? The syntax with the curly braces is for Ant. You're
trying to access environment variables.
it would appear that it completely ignores the ${CATALINA_HOME}
variable,
which I have checked is defined. can anyone suggest a reason for this?
I
tried it with ${catalina.base} which i saw somewhere but that doesnt
work
either. And it doesnt like ${file.separator} either. I'm running winNT.
Same thing for file.separator, although I don't think that's always
defined as it is in java.

yeah,
log4j.appender.myAppender.File=%CATALINA_HOME%/logs/my_log.txt
doesnt work either!
