log4j2 configuration in Tomcat 8.5.8

0 votes
1,077 views

It's a little bit frustrating to configure Tomcat 8.5.8 with log4j2.

I put the following jars in $CATALINA_HOME/lib
log4j 2 core (log4j-core-2.6.2.jar)
log4j 2 api (log4j-api-2.6.2.jar)

Delete the file $CATALINA_HOME/conf/logging.properties
Put the new log4j 2 config file (log4j2.xml) in $CATALINA_HOME/lib

No errors but the created catalina.out file is empty and the console layout doesn't change, What else to check or change?

TLS certificate configuration in Tomcat 9

Is the PEM-based certificate configuration available for both JSSE-based and APR-based connectors in Tomcat 9 at this point? The documentation says e.g. the "certificateFile" attribute is for "OpenSSL Only", and when I try to launch Tomcat using the NIO connector and a PEM-based certificate file, Tomcat says that the keystore is corrupted (even though no keystore was actually specified).

SSL Configuration with in Tomcat

I am using tomcat version 5.5.7 in windows 7 Os. My problem is that , After I configure tomcat to use SSL , I get 'Keystore was tampered or incorrect password' error when I start tomcat.

I purchased a certificate from symantec verisign , and they verified the installation was correct and they said they cannot assist me further, as it is not their part.

I tried creating a self signed certificate like this ( http://www.mkyong.com/tomcat/how-to-configure-tomcat-to-support-ssl-or-https/ ) , still I get same error.

Please help me to resolve this.

How to create custom session and cookie in Tomcat 7/8 ?

I'm trying to figure out how I can create custom session cookies. I've found the Manager interface for creating the sessions, but there's nothing about the actual session cookie. I don't see anything in the Valve interface that will let me do this either. Is this possible in Tomcat 7 (or 8?).
