Questions tagged [catalina.out]

When running Tomcat on unixes, the console output is usually redirected to the file named catalina.out.

When running Tomcat on unixes, the console output is usually redirected to the file named catalina.out. The name is configurable using an environment variable. Whatever is written to System.err/out will be caught into that file. That may include:

  • Uncaught exceptions printed by java.lang.ThreadGroup.uncaughtException(..)
  • Thread dumps, if you requested them via a system signal

For more, please read: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/logging.html#Console
