Betreff: Re: Path of log files changed in Tomcat 7.0.25 when
installing as Windows Service

It means you messed up your install. A clean install of 7.0.25 (with
the installer) works fine for me.

Hi Mark,
ok, but please note that I was using service.bat, not the Windows Installer.
I tried to reproduce the behavior on a clean Windows XP (32 bit) virtual
machine. I did the following steps:
1. I downloaded "jdk-7u2-windows-i586.exe" (JDK 7u2) from Oracle and installed
it.
2. I set the "JAVA_HOME" environment variable to the JDK path,
"C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.7.0_02".
3. I downloaded "apache-tomcat-7.0.25-windows-x86.zip" (the 32-bit Windows Zip
file) from tomcat.apache.org and extracted the files to C:\Tomcat7.
4. When I call startup.bat and later shutdown.bat to start Tomcat directly (not as service), all
logs are stored in "C:\Tomcat7", e.g.
"C:\Tomact7\logs\catalina.2012-01-27.log". After shutting down Tomact, I deleted the logs
so that the folder is clean.
5. Then, I run "service install" to install Tomcat as Windows service.
Following output is printed to the console:
Installing the service 'Tomcat7' ...
Using CATALINA_HOME: "C:\tomcat7"
Using CATALINA_BASE: "C:\tomcat7"
Using JAVA_HOME: "C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.7.0_02"
Using JRE_HOME: "C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.7.0_02\jre"
Using JVM: "C:\Programme\Java\jdk1.7.0_02\jre\bin\server\jvm.dll"
The service 'Tomcat7' has been installed.
6. I start the "Apache Tomcat 7" service (short name: "Tomcat7") in the Windows
Services panel.
7. Following logs are created (displayed by "dir" command):
C:\tomcat7>dir /b /s *.log
C:\tomcat7\bin\${catalina.base}\logs\catalina.2012-01-27.log
C:\tomcat7\bin\${catalina.base}\logs\host-manager.2012-01-27.log
C:\tomcat7\bin\${catalina.base}\logs\localhost.2012-01-27.log
C:\tomcat7\bin\${catalina.base}\logs\manager.2012-01-27.log
C:\tomcat7\logs\commons-daemon.2012-01-27.log
C:\tomcat7\logs\tomcat7-stderr.2012-01-27.log
C:\tomcat7\logs\tomcat7-stdout.2012-01-27.log
So it seems the Tomcat logs are stored in "C:\tomcat7\bin\${catalina.base}\logs\",
whereas the Daemon logs are stored in "C:\tomcat7\logs\".
Also, when I set "CATALINA_HOME" to "C:\Tomcat7" before installing the service,
the logs are stored in the bin\${catalina.base}\logs folder.
When using the same steps with Tomcat 7.0.23, all the logs are stored into
C:\Tomact7\logs.
Did I something wrong in the service installation?
To me, it does not look like you did anything wrong, and it looks very much like there is
something wrong in the setup software, like some bad quoting that prevents
'${catalina.base}' to be expanded to its real value.
Which then causes the path to be considered as relative, and made absolute by prefixing it
with 'C:\tomcat7\bin\'.
Of course, that's just my personal opinion.
