Hi all,

Usually when we put 'System.out.println()' statements in a servlet... the Tomcat (version 4.x or version 3.x) or Catalina window will display the output... but when i tried to display a message using Tomcat version 5.x the Tomcat window doesn't display.

How can i make the output be shown on the Tomcat window? please, i need your guidance.

Thanks in adv...

So your real problem is the tomcat 'window' not displaying, correct?

When you installed Tomcat5, did you install the service, and are you using the Tomcat service?

Any reason you're using system.out.println and not something like the log() method provided in the API (or better, log4j)?

Actually, i'm not using Tomcat as a service, but launching it manually.

I'm using System.out.println() methods for debugging the servlets...I can't get proper errors shown in the log files of tomcat.

Sorry, i forgot one more information... that is, the Tomcat is connected to Apache 2 server... will this be a problem to the tomcat window? I've also checked the log files in Apache...there is not enough information for my debugging.

so when you launch tomcat manually, there is no DOS Window?

That usually means Tomcat has not started at all (unless something has radically changed with TC5)

Hi Mike,

I've both the DOS windows opened for Tomcat and apache... Both the TC and Apache are connected... The problem is I don't get the output on the DOS console of TomCat when a System.out.println() statement is executed by a Servlet.

in your server.xml file, do you have an attribute "swallowOutput=true" ?

If so, then System.out and System.err messages are redirected to the server log files. Those would be in $CATALINA_HOME/logs

Are there any messages in stdout.log or stderr.log (not *your* messages, but messages from Tomcat, indicating an error in startup?)

I've not used "swallowOutput=true" attribute inside any element within "server.xml" file. FYI, following list of text were written to "stdout.log" file...
