Server.xml file

Kyle D. Harris — Wed, 14 Jan 2004 10:50:31 GMT

In making my server.xml file from scratch, im going off a website. Here is part of the server.xml file .. My question is if anybody can explain to me what they mean by "your engine" and "your domain" below. If you can give an example of what they mean, that'd be good. Thanks

prefix="catalina_log." suffix=".txt"
timestamp="true"/>

Are they talking about for Engine like "standalone" and for domain like "localhost"... ???

engine name can be an arbitrary value ( stock, it is "Standalone") . You can then use it to reference the engine in the rest of the file.

Normally defaultHost would be "localhost".

I dont think you should create it from scratch *unless* you know what you're doing.

Ok, nice.
Try replacing your_engine by Standalone and you_domain by localhost

I would also add

directory="logs" prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
pattern="%h %l %u %t %r %s %b %H %p" resolveHosts="false"/>

between and so you have an access log.
