All,
Referring to a classic Tomcat log like the one below :
Would it not be a good idea for Tomcat, when it starts, to print a first line to its main
logfile, similar to what Apache httpd does :
[Tue Apr 01 18:00:02 2014] [notice] Apache/2.2.12 (Linux/SUSE) mod_ssl/2.2.12
OpenSSL/0.9.8j-fips mod_jk/1.2.26 mod_perl/2.0.4 Perl/v5.10.0 configured -- resuming
normal operations
I mean, for Tomcat, a line with it's own version, the Java version, the APR version if
used, the host OS if available etc..
All these things that we usually ask the posters to this list to provide, and which can be
obtained via the "version.sh|bat" script in tomcat/bin.
In at least 50% of the cases, it would at least save us from having to ask.
And actually running the "version.sh|bat" script on the server (or any command-line for
that matter) may not necessarily be easy for everyone who has a problem.
Sample current log :
