tomcat access log配置

To monitor who is using your server, set up HTTP access logging in Tomcat. Every request that comes to Tomcat gets a

Setting up Logging

To setup access logging, edit the Tomcat server configuration file, ${tomcat_home}/conf/server.xml and uncomment the AccessLogValve :

        <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
                 directory="logs"  prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
                 pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>

By default the log files are created in the ${tomcat_home}/logs directory and roll over to a new file at midnight.

The log messages can be written in either of two standard web access log formats by setting the pattern attribute to common or combined . These appear to be the ones used by web log analyseres. Other log formats can be specified with the pattern attribute.

More information on the AccessLogValve and the pattern attribute can be found on the Tomcat Valve Configuration Reference .

Modifying the Log Format

We can extend the "common" and "combined" patterns by appending the response time for each request. To use this, set the

• common : pattern="common"
• common plus response time : pattern="%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b %D"
• combined : pattern="combined"
• combined plus response time : pattern="%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b "%{Referer}i" "%{User-Agent}i" %D"

 

Using FastCommonAccessLogValve(注意：tomcat6不包含此类)

The FastCommonAccessLogValve has better performance than the AccessLogValve . If you are running a production system, you might consider switching to the FastCommonAccessLogValve . The main restriction is that only the "common" and "combined" log formats can be used.

        <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve"
                 directory="logs"  prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
                 pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>

The Logging Output

Here is a sample entry from the motherlode logs, using the combined plus response time pattern.

Example log entry:

82.93.133.81 - joe [01/Jul/2007:08:44:38 -0600] "GET /thredds/dodsC/fmrc/NCEP/GFS/Global_0p5deg/offset/NCEP-GFS-Global_0p5deg_Offset_0.0
hr.dds HTTP/1.1" 200 32707 "null" "IDV/NetcdfJava/HttpClient" 2999

Example Value Meaning

82.93.133.81	client IP address
-	not used
joe	authenticated username
[01/Jul/2007:08:44:38 -0600]	request time
"GET ..."	HTTP request verb and path
200	HTTP response code
32707	bytes transferred
"null"	Referer
"IDV/NetcdfJava/HttpClient"	client name
2999	response time in msecs

 

Using Web Log Analysers

We have used these two Web Log Analysers, but there are many others to choose from.

• Sawmill commercial, full-featured
• AWstats free
