log file

[cucucur]

hi! I'm using java.util.logging to make a file with my log. This code works in Windows, but it doesn't in ubuntu (I need the ubuntu version):

	public static void logInit(){	
		try {
			FileHandler fh = new FileHandler("/home/tomcat6/log",true);
            fh.setFormatter(new SimpleFormatter());
            log = Logger.getLogger("/home/tomcat6/log");
			log.addHandler(fh);
            log.info("example");
		}
		catch (IOException e) {
		}
	}

It doesn't open the file log and continues writting on it, it start a new file called log.1, log.2, log.3... every time I execute this code.

I have no idea how to solve it, could you help me?

thanks in advance!!

I guess your program has not access to this folder.
You can try give access

chmod 777 log

thank you so much, but, I've already tried this.

When the program creates a new file it is like this:

ubuntu@ubuntu:/home/tomcat6$ ls -l
total 96
-rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6  64 2011-04-12 15:40 log
-rw-r--r-- 1 tomcat6 tomcat6  64 2011-04-12 16:03 log.0

It is in /home/tomcat6, i tried 777 to home, tomcat6 and log, but it didn't work!

I can'd understand!

Tnaks!

What is the point of this?

I don't understand it either...

I want to create a new log file, I decide what to write, the log deffinition is not concern about my problem...

Thank you anyway!!

It's signature link spam, I've reported it.
