startup.bat is equivalent to calling "catalina.bat start" Try using "catalina.bat run" instead. > > o Modified catalina.bat to pipe %EXECJAVA% … %ACTION% commands to log file > (didn’t work, nothing in the log file) It would be nice to see the actual command line that starts Tomcat's Bootstrap.

Try to simplify your configuration. Leave only "1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler". (You may include ConsoleHandler as well if you want to dup all to the console as well, but omitting it you can catch what goes to console only and not to the files). [[[ handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler .handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.level = FINE 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina.base}/logs 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.prefix = catalina. .level=INFO ]]] IIRC If logging fails to start it prints a message to the console.
