useage of 'work' directory

[fifi129 <fi...@my-Deja.com>]

I 've install tomcat 3.1 with apache 1.3.12 and linux 6.1.  I found some directory start with 'localhost_8080%2F' under usr.Tomcat/work/
Can somebody tell me ehat is this and can I delete the directories since they occupied lots of space.

On the other hand, I found the space in the /user directory always ran out.  is it cause of the log file.  Can i make some configuration to elminate this problem.

thanks alots!!

i) The 'work' directory stores the generated Java code from your JSPs and as such should not be deleted (they'll get recreated upon the next access to the JSPs anyway).

ii) You can configure the location of the log files in the XML files, but a temporary workaround might be to symlink /user to somewhere with more space free. With our setup all the logs go to /var/log/...
