Subject: Re: Tomcat producing (near) duplicate Catalina logs

Then one of the Linux mangling distribution authors intervened
to explain why they were mangling and re-arranging things, and
it all made a lot of sense too.

Then get them to support the mess they create.

Seriously, throw away the 3rd-party junk and install a real Tomcat. The mangled distributions are simply not reliable, regardless of how well-founded the intentions are.


Ok. Maybe if we phrased the question differently then :

Hi guys,

To Tomcat developers and/or members of the "real Tomcat" fraternity :

under which circumstances /would/ Tomcat 5.5 under Linux create two almost-identical-but-not-quite logfiles,
- one named "catalina.2008-06-12.log"
- one named "catalina_2008-06-12.log"
... just theoretically ?

Just a shot in the dark:

One of them coming from Tomcat-Logging, the other might be a redirected STDOUT written via a service wrapper. In many log configuration, appenders are configured in a way, that log messages go to STDOUT and a log file in parallel. In Tomcat without a service wrapper STDOUT gets redirected to catalina.out (no rotation by default), with a service wrapper it might go to the duplicate log file. Didn't verify that though.

What's the difference between the two almost identical log files (I mean difference in contents)?

And thanks for your benevolent help.


To Linux Debian Tomcat 5.5 packagers (and manglers) :

why does Tomcat 5.5 under Debian Linux Etch create two almost-identical-but-not-quite logfiles,
- one named "catalina.2008-06-12.log"
- one named "catalina_2008-06-12.log"
huh, why ?
and where did you put the configuration snippet that tells it to do that ?

And thanks for your benevolent help.
