Question to post to the list
Hi,
I am hoping that someone may be able to help me.
I want to write my tomcat logs to a different directory.
I thought i could change
log4j.appender.R.File=$\{catalina.home\}/logs/tomcat.log to something like log4j.appender.ROLLINGFILE.File=$\{logs\}/stdout.log
in my C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\Dekho\WEB-INF\classes\resources logging.properties file but had no luck with this.
Does anyone have any ideas

... plus if the line is part of a log4j.properties file, I never saw
backslashes in those. Works without them.

It's also not clear what the OP's expectations are; she speaks of "Tomcat logs", then presents information about logging inside one particular webapp - which has nothing to do with Tomcat's logging.
So what's the real problem?

Yep. You seemed to have that angle covered - I was suggesting an
alternative approach.
I forgot to add the final statement though. (I plead pre-coffee).
log4j.appender.R.File=$\{catalina.base\}/logs/tomcat.log

Pid,
I believe the problem here is that Fiona tried to use
File=$\{logs\}/stdout.log
However, this will only work if an environment-variable "logs" is
defined - which is IMHO no default configuration.
Cheers
Gregor

So you're using Tomcat 6.0.something, and Windows something, and a JVM
version +1.5 of some sort. << (Hints for next time)
You can define CATALINA_HOME (Tomcat installation) and CATALINA_BASE
(apps, logs & config) to be in separate locations.
This is often used to run multiple instances from the same binaries, but
also helps moves logs out of Programs Files on Windows and makes
upgrades incredibly easy.
Examine "RUNNING.txt" in the Tomcat installation directory and look for
"Advanced Configuration".
