How do you configure JBoss to enable HTTP logging ?

Written by F.Marchioni

JBoss recipe of the day

To enable HTTP logging, you need to go to the deploy/jbossweb-tomcat55.sar directory. There you will see the server.xml file, to which you'll need to add the following valve definition:

    <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.FastCommonAccessLogValve"
           prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".log"
           pattern="common" directory="${jboss.server.home.dir}/log"
           resolveHosts="false" />

A Valve element represents a component that will be inserted into the request processing pipeline for the associated Catalina container. The Access Log Valve creates log files in the same format as those created by standard web servers. These logs can later be analyzed by standard log analysis tools to track page hit counts, user session activity, and so on. The files produces by this Valve are rolled over nightly at midnight.

Once you've restarted the server, Tomcat will create an access log.
