The thing is that I has been trying to clobber some application that I had developed during tc 4.1.36 times and after all these changes I don't seem to see things through ~ What I am trying to achieve is take everything that could be editted or folders that should be writable (log files etc) to a directory out of $CATALINA_BASE's branch ~ Here are in the incumbered sections of server.xml and context.xml ~ ~ ~ ~ $CATALINA_HOME/conf/server.xml!<Host/> ~ ~ ~ ~ <Host name="localhost" appBase="C:\cmllpz\prjx\java\GWB\webappsDir_tc-6.0.14\webapps02" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true" xmlValidation="false" xmlNamespaceAware="false"> <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="C:\cmllpz\prjx\java\GWB\logs" prefix="tc-6.0.14-localhost_access_log." suffix=".log" pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/> </Host> ~ ~ ~ ~ C:\cmllpz\prjx\java\GWB\webappsDir_tc-6.0.14\webapps02\fileupload\META-INF\context.xml ~ ~ ~ ~ <Context debug="99" reloadable="true" crossContext="true"> <Logger className="org.apache.catalina.logger.FileLogger" directory="C:\cmllpz\prjx\java\GWB\logs" prefix="tc-6.0.14-FileUpload_log." suffix=".txt" timestamp="true"/> </Context> ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ However I still don't see that tc is creating the log file specific to this webapp, namely, "tc-6.0.14-FileUpload_log" ~ org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve in <Host /> is worning just fine though ~ Thank you again lbrtchx --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
