How can the log level be configured for Tomcat?
To set the Tomcat log level, you can follow these steps:
- Open the configuration file logging.properties of Tomcat, located in the conf folder within the Tomcat installation directory.
- Locate the following line in the logging.properties file:
.level = INFO
The default log level is set to INFO.
- Modify the log level according to your requirements to the desired level, for example:
.level = WARNING
This will set the log level to WARNING.
Here are some commonly used log level options (listed in increasing order of severity):
- SEVERE: The highest level, indicating a serious error.
- WARNING: Indicates situations that may lead to issues.
- INFO: Information level, indicating normal operation of the program.
- CONFIG: Configuration level, providing detailed information about the configuration.
- Provide more detailed information at the level of details.
- FINER: More detailed level of details.

Once the log level is set, Tomcat will record log information at the appropriate level as per your settings.
