REPORT #174 Details.

Project: Tomcat
Category: Feature Requests
SubCategory: Enhancement
Class: swbug
State: received
Priority: medium
Severity: non-critical
Confidence: public
Environment: 
   Release: tomcat 3.1, 4.0
   JVM Release: any
   Operating System: any
   OS Release: any
   Platform: any

Synopsis: 
Tomcat log files should be opened for append

Description:
When org.apache.tomcat.logging.Logger opens a log
file, the log file is overwritten.  It is standard
procedure to append to log files which is easily done
using new FileWriter(path, true).

This seems to be fixed in 4.0, except for
org.apache.jasper.logging.Logger which still opens
the file for overwrite instead of for append.
