For debugging purposes I downloaded the zip-version of Tomcat 10.0.18 and start
it up using
%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup.bat.
This will create by default a separate process (terminal, commandline window)
in which Tomcat runs
and dispatches all output including stdout and stderr output into that window.
By contrast the Windows service installation would redirect stdout and stderr
by default to
%CATALINA_HOME%\logs\ using "tomcat10-stderr.yyy-mm-dd.log" and
"tomcat10-stdout.yyyy-mm-dd.log" as
their name. The same would be desired for the "startup.bat" version of Tomcat
10.
Windows does not appear to have any of the following features woich
would be required for that behavior:
1. nohup
2. backgrounding of CLI processes
3. shell-based redirection of stderr
I think you can achieve all of the above if you use catalina.sh from
within bash-on-Windows, but I'm no expert.
You may also be able to do this kind of thing with a PowerShell script.
Again, I'm no expert. But it couldn't be a .bat file, it'd have to be a
.ps1 file instead.
Probably I have been doing something wrong in the past hours and not seeing the
forest for the trees
anymore I kindly request help: what is needed to successfully redirect stderr
and stdout to
%CATALINA_HOME%\logs after unzipping Tomcat 10 and starting it on Windows using
%CATALINA_HOME%\bin\startup.bat?
I don't believe this is possible. You may be able to somewhat simulate
what you want by using:
C:> bin\catalina.bat run > stdout_and_stderr.log
But you won't get the C:> prompt back, and your cmd.exe window will have
to stay open until you stop the Tomcat process.
Hope that helps,
