Hi,

I chose the latter ; > ) the following is written at: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/config/logger.html directory: Absolute or relative pathname of a directory in which log files created by this logger will be placed. If a relative path is specified, it is interpreted as relative to $CATALINA_HOME. If no directory attribute is specified, the default value is "logs" (relative to $CATALINA_HOME). so it should definately be possible to write logs somewhere else ?! rainer jünger -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Troubles with the list: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
