80. ColdFusion-Tomcat Logging
Logs are the key to
troubleshooting and
tuning

81. ColdFusion-Tomcat Logging
One of the biggest differences from JRun to Tomcat occurred in
Logging.
Directory structure change
 Std JRun C:ColdFusion9cfusionlogs & C:ColdFusion9cfusionruntimelogs
 Enterprise C:JRun4logs & C:JRun4Serverscfusioncfusion.earcfusion.warWEB-
INFcfusionlogs
 C:ColdFusion11cfusionlogs

82. ColdFusion-Tomcat Logging
One of the biggest differences from JRun to Tomcat occurred in
Logging.
Java Logger Change
 JRun used log4j
 ColdFusion on Tomcat uses Java Commons Logging (JCL)
 log4j is far more configurable than JCL

83. ColdFusion-Tomcat Logging
Log setting control
 Tomcat setting files
 C:ColdFusion11cfusionruntimeconfcatalina.properties (jar file scanning)
 C:ColdFusion11cfusionjettyjreliblogging.properties
 C:ColdFusion11cfusionjnbridgejreliblogging.properties
 C:ColdFusion11cfusionruntimeconflogging.properties
 C:ColdFusion11jreliblogging.properties
 ColdFusion settings file
 C:ColdFusion11cfusionlibneo-logging.xml
