logs on Tomcat 5.5

[Pawel]

I see 'stdout' instead my app log file name under logs tab in FILENAME
column. A log type is log4j and size is 0.
The log file does exist for my application. Its in 'logs/myapp.log'.
Why Probe is not seeing this file? I can see probe.log so it seams to
be an issue with my application configuration. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Pawel

Can you share your log4j.properties (or xml) file?

[Pawel]

This is my log4j file.

Do you have log4j in your $CATALINA_HOME/lib directory?  Are there any errors in probe.log?

[Pawel]

I don't have log4j in $CATALINA_HOME/lib. I do have it in my war
archive deployed on Tomcat 5.5

This is my probe.log

It's odd that you have an error related to JDK logging in your probe.log.  That may be interfering with resolving the log4j log.  Can I send you a test build with some modifications that will help diagnose the issue?  If so, please email me.  Thanks.

[Pawel]

This is what I see in LOG tab

APP TYPE FILE NAME SIZE MODIFIED CLASS/_ns_ jdk stdout 0 B  
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler/myapp log4j stdout 0 B

I can preview the two bottom log files. The first two are recognized
as 'stdout' and cannot see them. I do have catalina_error_log and
catalina_out_log also. Is there a way to browse these log files in
probe ?


this is my probel.log when I redeployed the test build you emailed me

Sorry, there is no way to browse the console logs.  Probe can only read a log if it is written to a file.

It looks like my recent changes got rid of the error, at least.
