In the logging.properties on /etc/tomcat-5.5/ it seem that don't work if the File.Handler.directory is pointed to a symlink directory The original file have : 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = ${catalina_base}/logs ... and other .... on /etc/conf.d/tomcat-5.5 CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat-5.5 but /var/lib/tomcat-5.5/logs is a symlink to /var/log/tomcat-5.5 and in this configuration i have no logging if i change 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler.directory = /var/log/tomcat-5.5 logging work !! Why symlink don't work for tomcat ? Thank You Massimo
I am looking into this with upstream. In the mean time, I am wondering if it's because of how we have them in /etc/conf.d/tomcat-5.5 Can you please add a / to the end of both CATALINA_HOME, and _BASE. So it looks like CATALINA_BASE=/var/lib/tomcat-5.5/ I wonder if the lack of the / is causing it to be interpreted as a file not a dir. Otherwise might have to go with absolute paths, no symlinks, which I would hope to avoid doing.

Fixed in java experimental overlay, will be committed to tree sometime soon.
Committed into tree, closing bug.
