Hi gurus.
Under tomcat 8 and Linux, I am deploying an externally-provided web application, which in
its web.xml configuration file, has a parameter like this :
<init-param>
<param-name>logroot</param-name>
<param-value>/var/log/tomcat8</param-value>
</init-param>
This works, but I would like to make this more "generic", and would like to replace the
above param-value by something like this :
<init-param>
<param-name>logroot</param-name>
<param-value>${CATALINA_BASE}/logs</param-value>
</init-param>
with CATALINA_BASE being the well-known environment value set prior to starting (the JVM
which runs) Tomcat (and "${CATALINA_BASE}/logs" being actually a link which points to
"/var/log/tomcat8" in this case).
Can I do this ? and if yes, what is the exact way to do this right ?
(In a log4j configuration file, I can use "${env:CATALINA_BASE}" for this, but this is not
available under Tomcat, or is it ?)
