>             Project: JBoss Application Server
>          Issue Type: Bug
>      Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) 
>          Components: Logging
>    Affects Versions: JBossAS-4.2.0.GA
>         Environment: all
>            Reporter: Jon Stevens
>         Assigned To: Dimitris Andreadis
>             Fix For: JBossAS-4.2.3.GA

> jboss-log4j.xml has this as default:
>       <param name="File" value="${jboss.server.log.dir}/server.log"/>
> jboss-web.deployer has this:
>             <!-- Access logger -->
>             <Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
>                 prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".log"
>                 pattern="common" directory="${jboss.server.home.dir}/log" 
>                 resolveHosts="false" />
> Now, because those two variables are different, I can't easily setup logging to say /var/log/jboss because
> #1. there is two different variables to define: ${jboss.server.home.dir} and ${jboss.server.log.dir}
> #2. the access logger has /log hard coded to the end of the directory attribute which makes it impossible to set the two variables to the same value.
> My preference would be that the default is made to a single variable ${jboss.server.log.dir} which can control everything.
