If I could threadjack here, I'd like to point out my own gripe with
windows tomcat logging. Can we please make it out of the box log all
stdout stuff to a *single* catalina.out file that doesn't roll over?
That's a pain. I like to set up an icon to my log file, but I

I use Textpad to open the log file; if the log file is updated, it will
automatically update the screen. Try that.

I always drag and drop them from their given directory (in my case it's a
shared directory, then the logs are in a subdir) to my desktop and read them
that way, as to not interfere with perpetual logging to the file.

if there are only going to be occasional writes, then I close it every time.

I think this is a Windows issue. I doubt that Tomcat actually locks the log
files.
The reason I think that this is a Windows issue is that I run into the same
thing with other programs. I don't run Tomcat on Windows, so I can't check
Tomcat log files specifically.

I'm able to open Tomcat log files with Notepad, while Tomcat is running.
I guess the lock happens when Tomcat is writing to the log file, and

That doesn't really make sense: if they were hard locked, how were you

I think its just because a copy on a drag and drop is opening
the file as read only...
Thing is utilities like notepad and wordpad will try open rw.
Makes sense. What about a real editor like ConTEXT
log4j, if that matters, which I
doubt it does.

If I'm trying to troubleshoot some problems, I just drag it from my shared

oh yeah, I use Textpad a great deal, I just usually don't
open the logs in it -- I just double click and open them in
their native app (notepad.).
That's one of the reasons I use ConTEXT - it replaces
