No wonder it's not working: System.stdout and System.stderr don't exist as far as I know. Did you mean System.err and System.out?

Note that the "Log*" parameters have nothing to do with stdout/stderr: they are for reporting (whatever) to the Windows System Log. The documentation I can find for the --StdOutput and --StdError command-line parameters seem to indicate that they describe a filename. I would expect "auto" to be the filename. If you haven't specified the path, you will have to check the working directory of the service to determine where that file will try to be written. I'm not sure if Tomcat's service wrapper will fail silently or angrily if files cannot be created. If I were you, I'd specify an exact filename, including full path, for the "Redirect Stdout" and "Redirect Stderr" settings, and make sure that the effective user running the Tomcat service (TOMCAT? LOCAL_SERVICE?) has rights to write to that file/directory. >> There is a "swallowOutput" attribute on the <Context> element (found in >> conf/server.xml if you are a bad boy, or in your webapp's >> META-INF/context.xml, or in conf/[service]/[host]/[webapp].xml.
