RE: Logging of illegal requests from Tomcat 5
You could log all requests using the access log valve: Valve className=org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve directory=logs prefix=localhost_access_log. suffix=.txt pattern=common resolveHosts=false/ (more about at http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.0-doc/config/printer/valve.htm l) And then filter the log file searching for the illegal requests.

Re: Logging (Log4J) with Tomcat 4.1.x
No, you have to put each application log4j.xml in each WEB-INF/classes or WEB-INF/lib (in a jar) The first time you declare a Logger in your app, log4j.xml is searched in the ClassLoader; but, I don´t know why (maybe some log4j initialization static code), some log4j class is loaded by the Tomcat's Common ClassLoader, not by your WebappX classloader. Because of this, log4j.lib must be in the common dir. The log4j.xml is loaded by the WebappX, so each application may have its own log4j.xml. Each time you redeploy an application, the log4j.xml is searched again. 2005/7/4, Peter Verhoye [EMAIL PROTECTED]: log4j lib must bin in the Tomcat's common/lib There are multiple webapps deployed on the server.

Re: logging to seperate log file per war file
My guess (but, I'm not a Tomcat developer so what do I know! ;-)) is that you can't do it for System.out.println(). However, I did notice that System.setOut() allows you to redirect where standard out goes. However, I'm guessing that that would be for the entire JVM? As of Tomcat 5.5.9 they fixed up java.util.logging so that it can have different log files if that's any consolation. I guess the best solution is to simply using the logging APIs throughout and not use System.out for anything.

Re: Logging in Tomcat 5.5
I'm *guessing* you're facing some of the issues I have been. I believe you'll essentially need to set up a separate LoggerRepository (based on classloader, not thread or contextual class loader) and provide separate config files for each. I've got log4j.jar in my WEB-INF/lib, I'm using my own static/classloader-based LoggerRepository, and this keeps Tomcat's logs using their own LoggerRepository and a separate logging configuration. I'm still not to where I want to be with this, but it's a far cry from the out-of-the-box mess that occurs with log4j and commons-logging. -- Jess Holle Joy Kenneth Harry wrote: Hi, I have a webapp in tomcat.

Re: logging remote IP address
Sorry I'm coming into this discussion so late. I tend not to read work email on weekends for my own sanity. Let's not equate IPs with users. The fact of the matter is there are a lot of places that use cable routers to share one internet IP with a number of different clients. Here in Ithaca, it's as common as water with student housing doing some not so legal things with their Roadrunner hook-ups. I'm sure other areas are doing the same stuff with both cable routers and wireless access points. The facts of the matter are you have two different sessions with two different login.

Charles Wrote: Not true - the combination of IP address and PORT must be unique, not just the IP address. This is the essence of how NAT and proxies work. To expand on this, the job of a nat or pat device is not only to re-write the IP in the packet for as you say the packet would never return to the user, but to also keep track of all the connections established out bound and where they come from on the inside. When you make a request you send out a packet. It's destination is port 80 but the source on your machine may be any upper port. So it could look like: Source 192.168.10.31 port 14984 Destination 206.67.68.2 port 80 When the pat/nat devices gets done Source 67.34.126.21 port 44543 Destination 206.67.68.2 port 80 What is critical is that the pat/nat device remembers that: 192.168.10.31 port 14984 equals 67.34.126.21 port 44543 and thus reverses the changes in the packet. If another machine goes out it will get a unique port and thus the pat/nat device can keep track of which one is which. As for what is nat and pat. nat: Network address translation. All inside adresses are converted to one (Masqurade) outside address or one inside address is translated into a specific outside address. With the later your client will alwas have the same address. pat: pooled address translation. Same as Masqurade but done with a pool of addresses to support more clients. Hope this helps.

When a machine is on a private network this address is rewritten by the router the provides NAT or PAT translation. The one IP that is returned is the IP given by the router. Or is the actual IP of the machine. If I misunderstood what you needed let me know.

Shed. - Original Message - From: Svein Olav Bjerkeset [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Sent: Monday, January 03, 2005 12:12 AM Subject: Logging exceptions per webapp in Tomcat 5.5 After having read about how to setup logging in Tomcat 5.5 (http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/logging.html), I have managed to set up Log4j to work with Tomcat 5.5. However, when I set up indivdual logs for my webapps, only output generated from log statements in the code (Log4j statements) end up in these logs. Exceptions still end up in catalina.out (which is common to all webapps). I would like the exceptions to end up in the logfile belonging to the webapp that generated it. I have tried adding the following line in my web/WEB-INF/classes/log4j.properties file without getting the wanted result: log4j.logger.org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase.[Catalina].[localhost].[ /mywebapp]=DEBUG, A1 To test the logging, I have written a short JSP which just thorws an exception. From what I read in the following article: http://www.mail-archive.com/tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg143230.html, it seems that exceptions (and other output sent to stdout or stderr) can not be redirected and will always go to catalina.out. Is this correct or is there a way to also redirect exceptions to individual log files basen on what wabapp generated the exception?

Did you ever get an answer to you question? If so, how separate the

The exceptions will log out to your log file if you actually bother to
capture the exceptions and log them. The exceptions bubbling to the top in
catalina.out are those that get out of your code.
Don't let them out and capture them yourself. You can try (I haven't done
this) to put a catch-all Filter at the top of your app that does nothing but
public void doFilter(ServletRequest req, ServletResponse resp, FilterChain
chain)
{
try {
filterChain.doFilter(request, response);
}
catch(Throwable t) {
log.WARN(t);
}
}

RE: Logging and Deployment best practices
But I finally decided as I was upgrading Tomcat that I'd address that
problem by moving to a rolling file appender. Seems to me that I have
two choices for doing this:
we find the rolling file appenders useful as you can specify periodcity and
they rename themselves to dated filenames. you can then manage those files
however you like.
a) Convert my log4j.properties file to use a RollingFileAppender. I
did this, and much to my surprise the log files showed up in my
%WIN_HOME%/system32 folder.
we put a placeholder in the log4j.properties file ${log4j.home} that gets
replaced with Ant when the build task is called either for development or
production. That means we have separate properties files for dev and prod
configs and the log4j.home parameter is actually a full path. You could adapt
this to your own scenarios. I've never gotten by default the log4j file logs
into tomcat's logs either, so use this other method.
b) Leave my log4j.properties file using ConsoleAppender and use a
Logger element in my Context to have Tomcat put the output into a
file. I have not tried this yet, and wanted to post this query before
digging further into it. Is this a good alternative? I have two
issues with it:
Yeah probably not a good logging stategy considering it's gone ;) And anyways,
that stuff was only for specific types of logging info that will now come
through in stdout.

Cool! I guess it pays to know where to look. I've been digging through
Tomcat documentation to find an answer, when I guess I needed to read the
log4j documentation.
I want to stay away from programmatic configuration of log4j, and just use
property files. Using an environment variable gives me the flexibility I
need.
Thanks for your answers!

If we were to start peppering the docs for version X (e.g 5.0) with references to how a feature is handled in versions Y (e.g. 3.x, 4.x) and Z (5.5.x) as well, the docs would become a real mess (look at the changelogs to get an idea of how much would be added), and I think more people would be confused than helped.

Yeah, maybe it's what you put in parentheses above, or maybe it's something else, but things don't just change by themselves ;) Any suggestions on an easy way to track down the culprit or prevent some random process of jacking up the default log level? Define default in the above sentence? BTW - tomcat/conf/log4j.properties is still reasonable I've found nothing unusual in tomcat/conv/server.xml . Does tomcat/conf/log4j.properties assign a level to org.apache loggers? If not, it should. If it worked before without doing this, you were lucky. Add something like logger.org.apache = WARN and you'll be all set.

RE: logging, configuration.
Hi, Comment out the RequestDumperValve (in $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml) altogether: it's output is not errors, as you noted. However, it's also not a Logger per-se and so the Logger congifuration doesn't apply to it. It's commented out by default, so go back to the default ;) Yoav Shapira Millennium Research Informatics -Original Message- From: Pawson, David [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 04, 2004 4:27 AM To: Tomcat Users List Subject: RE:logging, configuration. -Original Message- From: Jacob Kjome Is it the commons-logging that produces catalina_log.date.txt? Is there a config file as per log4j? Even when testing, this file becomes quite significant. It would be nice to reduce/minimise its output. Ultimately, Tomcat uses commons-logging for logging, but uses its own Logger interface which is configured in context configuration files or server.xml. Note that this is no longer the case in 5.5.x. Read the docs on Tomcat's Logger's for more info. tc 5.0.27, server.xml has Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger directory=logs prefix=localhost_log. suffix=.txt timestamp=true/ and Logger className=org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger prefix=catalina_log. suffix=.txt verbosity=1 timestamp=true/ The documentation states that verbosity = 1 should log errors only? (which it states to be the default) I don't think the log output below constitute errors?

RE: Logging of JK2 ISAPI connector
With JK2 you set the log in the workers2.properties file.

Re: Logging of JK2 ISAPI connector
Just a note, though this only happened to me in Linux: If the 'native Application Event Log' gets disrupted somehow, then it caused the connector to 'hang' and thus stopped all calls for jsp pages. In Linux what happened to me every sunday was that the 'logrotate' utiltiy would move my httpd.log to httpd.log.1, and then create a new httpd.log. This was enough to cause my jk2 to stop responding... Just so that you know. S Krell, Andrew wrote: With JK2 you set the log in the workers2.properties file.

RE: Logging / Exception handling framework within Tomcat
Howdy, You need to read the log4j documentation: that framework is far from basic, very complete, and meets all your requirements. Log4j supports modifying properties at runtime. You can write your own code following instructions to do this, or you can use the log4j sandbox's configuration servlet. Log4j also supports adding contextual information to every log message. There are several approaches possible here, but MDC (org.apache.log4j.MDC) is probably what you want. If you have further specific questions feel free to ask on the log4j-user mailing list. Yoav Shapira Millennium ChemInformatics -Original Message- From: Johannes [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 06, 2004 3:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Logging / Exception handling framework within Tomcat hi there, As of TC 4.x I know the following architecture exists for logging within an application: From the very basic *) System.out.println, which goes to catalina.out / stdout.log *) e.printStackTrace(), which goes to catalina.out / stderr.log up to more advanced: *) using context.log() to write into the servlet context's log file *) using Log4J to redirect log output to files / jdbc interfaces However, in real life I found these approaches are very basic and not sufficient: *) If I want to debug, I usually want to debug complete transactions = I want to know what was stored inside the request, where did it come from, what was the content of the session, and what was the complete debug logging of the whole transaction (including all methods called / walked through). I wrote a small framework to handle such transaction debug logs completely. Is anybody else interested in this issue? *) If an exception arises, the stacktrace in catalina.out is a nightmare to troubleshoot. To be productive in detecting runtime exceptions, one needs a complete transaction log to know exactly what happened. Complete transaction log means to me: - complete data of the HttpServletRequest - complete data of the HttpSession - everything that might identify the user (Cookies, RemoteAddress, Browser, ...) - complete stacktrace Additionally, I needed to turn on/off debugging during RUNTIME, which currently is not supported using Log4J (because it stores its data inside properties files within the WAR file). I wrote a small Singleton to support turning logging ON/OFF during runtime. I'd appreciate if anybody else can share his thoughts on this topic.

RE: Logging / Exception handling framework within Tomcat
hi yoav, I've been showing up here some months ago, and now you're still on your job answering the many answers here. I'm impressed... I'll take a look into the Log4J.MDC - don't you think it would make sense to provide guidelines on how to log debugmessages and exceptions in servlet/jsp-apps (like the App Dev. Guide of Craig)? or is there already something at the log4j site you know of? thx alot Johannes
RE: Logging / Exception handling framework within Tomcat
Howdy,
I'll take a look into the Log4J.MDC - don't you think it would make
sense
to provide guidelines on how to log debugmessages and exceptions in
servlet/jsp-apps (like the App Dev. Guide of Craig)? or is there
already
something at the log4j site you know of?
There isn't something explicit: if you write something I'll put it on
the site ;) It's fairly simple, though. For example, if you want all
session and request attributes in the MDC, from a servlet, you would do:
// Populate MDC with request attributes
MDC.getContext().put(request.getParameterMap());
// Populate MDC with session attributes
Enumeration sAttributes = session.getAttributeNames();
String name;
while(sAttributes.hasMoreElements()) {
name = sAttributes.nextElement();
MDC.put(name, session.getAttribute(name));
}
// Log
logger.info(something);
// Clear MDC to save memory
MDC.getContext().clear();
There's a gotcha here, though. You would need to declare those keys in
the MDC you want output to your log file by using %X{KeyName} in your
layout declaration. Perhaps a modification to PatternLayout is needed
to output the entire MDC. But anyways, that's to be discussed on the
log4j-user list if you're interested.

Yes, but why put it in the CLASSPATH and not in /server/lib? Doesn't this mean that any configuration would affect all webapps? probably, except that Tomcat loads stuff from WEB-INF/lib and WEB-INF/classes before trying from the parent classloaders (opposite of normal Java2 classloading). This is defined by the servlet spec and allows for applications to use their own libs even when the server contains its own duplicates. 2) Is there a recommended way to control what gets spewed into catalina.out? The fact that all the messages I'm getting have an INFO tag would indicate that this should be possible. Yes, add a commons-logging configuration file to common/classes, e.g. as suggested in this link off the tomcat FAQ: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/faq/misc.html#catalina.out I saw that, and that has a config file for log4j, not commons-logging. There is no way to actually filter the output through the commons-logging config file. I'd like a way to only suppress catalina's output. If I use a log4j.properties, it means I'd need to install log4j in /common/lib. It also means that I have to specify all logging config info in /common/classes instead of on a per-webapp basis (see http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg113292.html). Well, only if you don't put log4j.jar under WEB-INF/lib. As stated above, if you do this, log4j.jar will load for your webapp even if a common one is available to other webapps. Otherwise, you can also use a custom repositor selector http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?Log4JProjectPages/AppContainerLogging 3) In any case, why doesn't Tomcat just come with commons-logging.jar and log4j.jar bundled in /server/libs? Tomcat does not want to tie you into a specific logging implementation, e.g. log4j. Tomcat wants to make its logging available to webapps by default, so server/lib is not a possible location. But doesn't this just lead to classloader hell? Sometimes, yes. commons-logging leads to classloader hell on its own no matter where you put it. It's nothing but trouble, if you ask me. http://www.qos.ch/logging/thinkAgain.html http://radio.weblogs.com/0122027/2003/08/15.html 4) Is there a FAQ or HOWTO on recommended approaches to handling logging in Tomcat somewhere? It won't hurt to search the archives of this list, there are many answers there. The link above also has some information. I'm sorry, but I have searched the archives, and there just doesn't seem to be one conclusive answer. I see a lot of e-mails talking about the use of commons-logging and how it causes all sorts of classloader wierdness. We get it all too often on the Log4j-user list. Users report Log4j isn't working and then proceed to provide a commons-logging config file. There have been very few cases where Log4j itself was causing the problems. I won't say it never does, but commons-logging seems to be the primary cause of issues in getting Log4j to work, not Log4j itself. What I'm looking for is a way to specify logging configuration for catalina that is independent of any webapps I may have. I don't want 1 log4j.properties for everything. Is this possible? If so, how? I'd be more than happy to write up a HOW-TO if I could just figure this out, but I haven't stumbled across anything that works yet. If you follow my advice above, you should be all set. Separate logger repositories for each app, even though you provide log4j and a config file in a parent classloader.
