Bug 134263 – Jetty ebuild doesn't symlink /opt/jetty/logs to /var/log/jetty

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Andrew Sterling Hanenkamp 2006-05-24 14:27:53 UTC]

From my experience with Tomcat, I would have expected /opt/jetty/logs to be a symbolic link to /var/log/jetty. This isn't the case on this ebuild, but there is a /var/log/jetty directory. This seems like an oversight.

diff for jetty-5.1.3

I agree.. that behavior is more consistent with the other packages.
I'm attaching a diff for the latest ebuild in java-experimental (I don't think there's a point in doing it for the one in portage.. that's still jetty 4).

new jetty.patch

This is a new version of www-servers/jetty/files/5.1.3/jetty.patch
The old one changed the logging dirs to /var/log/jetty-5, this changes it back since that's just a symlink.
You'll need to create a files/5.1.3-r1 and put it in there.

Closing bug. Removed from tree, till we get a maintainer and current version from source.
