Logging framework !

[Utkarsh Dave <ut...@gmail.com>]

Hi All,

I am using Tomcat 7.0.81 on centos 7.2 and using openjdk 1.7.0.141.
The problem I am seeing recently is manager*.log and localhost*.log files
are not created. Instead, I see the messages that were to be written into,
manager.log are going into Catalina.out. catalina.out and
localhost_access.log continue to work like before.
May I know how and from where to start debugging this?
I have verified logging.properties, there is no issue with it.

Any help will be appreciable.

-Thanks
Dave

My guess is that "java.util.logging.manager" and
"java.util.logging.config.file" system properties are not set,
and thus java uses default implementation of java.util.logging instead
of the one provided by Tomcat's
org.apache.juli.ClassLoaderLogManager.

Those properties are usually set by catalina.sh (and there is a
comment at that top of that file).

Best regards,

The first question here is : where does that tomcat 7.0.81 come from ?
If it is the "vanilla" tomcat from the tomcat website, then chances are that we can help 
you. If it is from a centos packaged version of tomcat, then there are less chances that 
we can help you, because we do not know exactly how the packagers of centos have set this up.

You probably need to start in that case by looking at the startup script(s) of tomcat, in 
/etc/init.d or similar, to find out what happens in terms of redirection of logfiles etc.

The people who create the tomcat packaged versions for the different Linux/Unix/Windows 
etc. distributions, each have their own logic about this kind of thing. Their intent is 
usually to try to "force" the tomcat logging to happen according to the general 
conventions on their particular platform, which can be quite different from the standard 
logging conventions of the various pieces of software that should run on each platform.
