Hi, thats good that you started this as a service, we just done same with our application, and may be our discussion help each other.
Here is exact information about logs of Tomcat when running as a service. 1- All System.out.print go to $:\Tomcat4.1\logs\stdout.log 2- All System.err.print go to $:\Tomcat4.1\logs\stderr.log 3- All other loggers like Log4j etc go to there respective streams. Now if you want to see the live logs exactly like Tomcat running as a stand alone server you will install cygwin and use folllowing command. tail -f c:/Tomcat4.1/logs/stdout.log etc. I wish we could communicate as we also have some unresolved issues like printing from POS terminals, which are under R&D. Also keep in mind that as a service JVM is picking JAVA_OPTS or not. Or you will have to edit some registry values.

Hi, Up until tonight, I've been running standalone Tomcat as an executable. But, I installed Tomcat on another machine, this time, installing it as a service. I can't find anywhere where Tomcat on this new machine logs the messages like you seen in the DOS window when you run Tomcat as an executable. I've checked in my .\logs directory, and watched the localhost...txt file, but I don't seen anthing much there? Can someone tell me where Tomcat is logging to?
