I am trying to deploy a Grails app inside Ubuntu Tomcat 6.

 

When I deploy the war inside Tomcat, I get this error

 

log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.

java.io.FileNotFoundException: stacktrace.log (Permission denied)

 

I have tried a lot of different log4j combination and had a look on Internet, but I always get the same error.

 

Actually my Config.groovy looks like

 

grails.project.groupId = appName // change this to alter the default package name and Maven publishing destination

grails.mime.file.extensions = true // enables the parsing of file extensions from URLs into the request format

grails.mime.use.accept.header = false

grails.mime.types = [ html: ['text/html','application/xhtml+xml'],

                      xml: ['text/xml', 'application/xml'],

                      text: 'text/plain',

                      js: 'text/javascript',

                      rss: 'application/rss+xml',

                      atom: 'application/atom+xml',

                      css: 'text/css',

                      csv: 'text/csv',

                      all: '*/*',

                      json: ['application/json','text/json'],

                      form: 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',

                      multipartForm: 'multipart/form-data'

                    ]

grails.views.default.codec = "none" // none, html, base64

    }

    development {

        grails.serverURL = "http://localhost:8080/${appName}"

            log4j.appender.'errors.File'="stacktrace.log"

    }

    test {

        grails.serverURL = "http://localhost:8080/${appName}"

            log4j.appender.'errors.File'="/var/log/tomcat6/stacktrace.log"

    }

 

}

log4j = {

    // Example of changing the log pattern for the default console

    //    console name:'stdout', layout:pattern(conversionPattern: '%c{2} %m%n')

    //}

 

    error  'org.codehaus.groovy.grails.web.servlet',  //  controllers

           'net.sf.ehcache.hibernate'

 

    warn   'org.mortbay.log'

    info   'grails.app'

}

 

Can anyone suggest what is wrong?

 

Thanks
