It is a little nasty, but I have modified the /usr/bin/tomcat script
that comes with the
RPM version of Tomcat 3.1 to allow redirection of System.err to a log
file.
It is a very simple patch, but one that I have already found useful.
Obviously it will only be of use to those who wish to use the tomcat
script
to <start>, not to <run> the tomcat program.
I thought some of you might find it of use.
Cheers
Jason
