Hello,
Tomcat is only configured through the server.xml file in
<TOMCT_HOME>/conf/server.xml
It is the configuration centre for the servlet container and the web-server
aspects of Tomcat.
If you choose not to use Apache as your front end and want to use Tomcat for
this purpose then look in your default server.xml file (you should have a
backup copy in /conf/ called server.xml.default) for a section like this:
<!-- Access log processes all requests for this virtual host. By
default, log files are created in the "logs" directory relative
to
$CATALINA_HOME. If you wish, you can specify a different
directory with the "directory" attribute. Specify either a
relative
(to $CATALINA_HOME) or absolute path to the desired directory.
-->
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log."
suffix=".txt"
pattern="common"/>
It give you a valve that you can use to create access logs which will show
each page access. But this is only necessary if you will not be using
apache as your front end and that is not advisable. You cannot format these
log files in the way you can format Apache's log files.
Hope that helps,
Andoni.

server? If Tomcat contains a web server as a seperate entity, where can (if
at all) the Apache httpd.conf file be found to configure such things as the
log files produced?
