Subject: Placing a webapp log file aside by other server log files
Hi all,
I am looking for a robust way to get a webapp-specific log file be placed
in the
same directory where all the other server logs go.
Using a line like "org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory =
${catalina.base}/logs" in the webapp's "logging.properties"
does not do the job, as server logs location may be changed from
${catalina.base}/logs to something else by the server's
"logging.properties".
Any ideas?
Thanks and best regards,
Sergey
This is probably not the best way, since it will require you to configure
information in two places (and keep it in sync). However, it should work.
In $CATALINA_BASE/bin/setenv.sh add something like the following to your
JAVA_OPTS:
JAVA_OPTS="-Dwebapp.logs=some-directory"
EXPORT JAVA_OPTS
In your web application's logging.properties reference
${webapp.logs}/some-file.
This seems to work reasonably well for me using log4j and commons-logging.
. . . . just my two cents.

Thank you Mark. Though that does not look like a solution I might be willing
to get :) , this will definitety do the job if no other solution is found...
Thanks again,
Sergey
