I have a load-on-startup servlet that throws an UnavailableException in it's init method if it won't be able to handle requests. It seems as though Tomcat can't generate a log message of this exception unless there is a request for the servlet. Is there a way to get Tomcat to immediately log servlet.init() exceptions? I have tried setting verbosityLevel="DEBUG" and debug="9". I know I could log these exceptions myself using servletContext.log(), it just seems there should be a way to configure Tomcat to do this. Thanks, -James
