Re: Server.xml configuration question.

Yes at some point I do need to switch to log4j. I set the 
swallowOutput="true"
    ...
    ...
    <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost">
      <!-- Define the default virtual host -->
      <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps"
       unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
        <Context path="/mywebapp" docBase="mywebapp" debug="0"
  	       swallowOutput="true"
                 reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
	        <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
         		         directory="logs"  prefix="mywebapp." suffix=".log"
	       		timestamp="true"/>
	<Context/>
      </Host>
   </Engine>
   ...
   ...
When i start tomcat now, I still get some of the system.out from my 
webapp written to catalina.out.
My webapp implements ServletContextListener and HttpSessionListener, 
the output of the implementation class for ServletContextListener gets 
written to catalina.out.

Que 1. Is there a way to write this output also to the file I am 
specifying?

Que 2. Also I notice that when I use FileLogger, it creates a new file 
each day, is there a way to tell it to create only one big huge file 
and keep appending to it (like catalina.out) ?

Thanks,

Hi,
Add swallowOutput="true" to your Context element.  It also makes the
SystemOutLogger/SystemErrLogger definitions redundant IIRC.
Then when you have a chance switch to using a real logging toolkit like
log4j.

Subject: Server.xml configuration question.
Hi,
I am using Tomcat 5.0.27. I want to configure my server.xml such that:
1. all system.outs from my webapp
2. all error and exceptions due to my webapp
get written to logs/mywebapp.log under CATALINA_HOME
This is the except from my server.xml file that I have written:
    ...
    ...
    <Engine name="Catalina" defaultHost="localhost">
      <!-- Define the default virtual host -->
      <Host name="localhost" debug="0" appBase="webapps"
       unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
        <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger"
                directory="logs"  prefix="mywebapp." suffix=".log"
               timestamp="true"/>
        <Logger
className="org.apache.catalina.logger.SystemErrLogger"/>
        <Logger
className="org.apache.catalina.logger.SystemOutLogger"/>
        <Context path="/mywebapp" docBase="mywebapp" debug="0"
                 reloadable="true" crossContext="true"/>
      </Host>
   </Engine>
   ...
   ...
On running tomcat, I still get all my system.outs and error messages 
in
catalina.out. How do I
configure my server.xml to get these messages in mywebapp.log ?

Thanks.
