How to enable http server logs in an embedded tomcat server provided by spring boot? I've tried this in application.properties
but it doesn't create file, neither logs to console
#application.properties
server.tomcat.access-log-enabled=true
server.tomcat.access-log-pattern=%a asdasd
logging.file=/home/mati/mylog.log
spring boot 1.0.1.RELEASE
Try
server.tomcat.accessLogEnabled=true
server.tomcat.accessLogPattern=%a asdasd
and look in /tmp/tomcat.<random>.<port>/logs
for the output files. Set server.tomcat.basedir
property to change the directory.
Here it goes a way to have them displayed in console or whatever file you choose. Declare Tomcat's RequestDumperFilter
in any @Configuration
class:
@Bean
public FilterRegistrationBean requestDumperFilter() {
FilterRegistrationBean registration = new FilterRegistrationBean();
Filter requestDumperFilter = new RequestDumperFilter();
registration.setFilter(requestDumperFilter);
registration.addUrlPatterns("/*");
return registration;
}
And that's the output:

Then manage it as any standard Spring Boot log.
In Spring Boot 1.5.1 the properties mentioned by Dave Syer no longer works, instead they're renamed into:
server.tomcat.basedir=target/tomcat-logs
server.tomcat.accesslog.enabled=true
server.tomcat.accesslog.pattern=%t %a "%r" %s (%D ms)
Using the configuration above, if running the project via its root directory the log will be available at target/tomcat-logs/log/access_log.*
