Ok. I will try that.

Thanks for your suggestion.

These are the parameter which we need to define when configuring Tomcat as Windows Services as descried here
So most probably Tomcat must be using them, I am not using them in my application.

This is what I have for that service.

set "PR_LOGPATH=%CATALINA_BASE%\var\log"
set "PR_LOGPREFIX=%SERVICE_NAME%"
set PR_STDOUTPUT=%CATALINA_BASE%\var\log\server.log
set PR_STDERROR=%CATALINA_BASE%\var\log\server.log

I am using Windows Services utility to start/stop/restart the Service.
There is no error on any action.

Just for your information if that could help.
This behavior I see only when running Tomcat as Windows Service.
It works fine when using startup.bat file.

These are the other appenders I have, but they don't refer to server.log file.

<appender name="ASYNC" class="org.apache.log4j.AsyncAppender"> <param name="threshold" value="TRACE"/> <param name="blocking" value="true" /> <param name="bufferSize" value="16384" /> <appender-ref ref="CONSOLE" /> <appender-ref ref="FILE" /> </appender> <appender name="CONSOLE" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender"> <param name="threshold" value="TRACE"/> <param name="target" value="System.out"/> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="conversionPattern" value="%d{ISO8601} %-5r %-5p [%c] (%t:%x) %m%n"/> </layout> </appender>

Log file which I mentioned in log4j file appender "server.log"

<appender name="FILE" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender"> <param name="threshold" value="TRACE"/> <param name="append" value="true"/> <param name="bufferedIO" value="false"/> <param name="immediateFlush" value="true"/> <param name="maxBackupIndex" value="5"/> <param name="maxFileSize" value="10MB"/> <param name="file" value="$SOMEPATH/log/server.log"/> <layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout"> <param name="conversionPattern" value="%d{ISO8601} %-5r %-5p [%c] (%t:%x) %m%n"/> </layout> </appender>

Hi Folks,

I have Tomcat 7 configured to run as Windows Service. I am using SLF4J for logging. Logs are getting captured properly.
Only problem I have is when I restart Tomcat Service it purge the old logs, even if <param name="append" value="true"/>.

It seems this is Tomcat's default behavior when running as Windows Service.

Is it possible to change this behavior, I want whenever service gets restarted, it just append the new logs, instead of purging the old logs.

Thanks in advance.

Done. You can send your WSDL.

Aakash,

What is the version of Axis2 and Rampart ?
Can you share WSDL file ?

This is what you should add in your groovy script.
UID = System.currentTimeMillis();

Then add step 'Property Transfer' where you can easily transfer the result of groovy script to next step's request.

You can add groovy script step to generate this.

Hi Surlac,

Do you have any comments on this problem ?

Any help/pointer for this please ?

Can't upload .zip/.rar files here. You can download from here
You may need to adjust the build path.
