How to re-config/customize tomcat 4's loggers

[Bing Zhang <BZ...@7thonline.com>]

Hi all:
We recently installed Tomcat 4.1.24, but we want to change The Logger
Component configuration, the reason is that we want all the catalina log or
access log to use one file per purpose,  but the default file logger from
Catalina, org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger, will use a new file every
day.   
Is there anyway we can configure tomcat to use some other off the shelf
logger class, so that it would only use one file per purpose.   Thanks a
lot. 
Bing

Objects in session lost when using mutiple servers

[Wilian Zurita <wz...@eluniversal.com>]

I'm having the following problem:

Quick explanation: I'm losing objects stored in session.

Long explanation (inside parenthesis, an explanation for whomever know 
struts):
I have a servlet (a struts action, really) that stores an object (an 
ActionForm) in session, then redirects to a JSP page. The page display 
perfectly the information of the object, then I submit a form in that 
page that contains information to be changed in the object (submit the 
ActionForm), the object is further processed (in another action) and 
then again redirected to the same JSP page THEN the page does not 
displays the information correctly, because the object (the form) is not 
in the session, somehow.

Now, this happens only when I'm running 2 tomcat servers at the same 
time: I have a tomcat running in the x address with just one 
application, and another tomcat running in the y address with other 
(completely different) set of applications. I already check all the 
ports, (for the connectors and the server) the directories (in the 
catalina.sh script), and they are all different for each server.

I'm thinking the problem HAVE to be when the server access the disk (the 
servers are on different virtual machines!!!), but I'm really out of ideas.

Thank you in advance for your ideas,


Wilian Z.
P.S. : English is a second language for me, so, excuse my mistakes if 
any, and if something is not clear, I'll be glad to further explain it 
to anyone....thank you again!!!!!!

The access logs have a property called rotatable to prevent nightly log 
rotation. (I think in 4.1.27) You can also set the date format too if desired.

As for the FileLoggers you are sol :( without extending FileLogger
