hihi, the default logging in TC 5.5 uses JDK logging (ie. java.util.logging).
you need to create and place a logging.properties file in your web app's classes folder. the following is what i use (replace "servlet-examples" with your web app name): <---- copy from below this line ----> handlers = org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler ############################################################ # Handler specific properties. # Describes specific configuration info for Handlers. ############################################################ org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = FINE org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = servlet-examples. java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level = FINE java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter = java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter <---- copy to the above line ----> more info can be found here: http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-5.5-doc/logging.html hth, woodchuck --- Rick Reumann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Was using JBoss and now I'm using Tomcat 5.5 stand-alone for an > application I'm working on.
