My installation is returning a couple of errors in the catalina.out file:log4j:ERROR setFile(null,true) call failed.
java.io.FileNotFoundException: alfresco.log (Permission denied)
Indicating that the alfresco.log file is either trying to be placed in a directory that doesn't have permission to write files, or that the directory doesn't exist. I've confirmed that the log(s) directory under the $CATALINA_HOME has tomcat ownership, but the file does not appear to be using that directory. We're resorting to modifying the log4j.properties within the war files which is obviously not recommended, but cannot find any other alternative. Also, modifying tomcat's log4j.properties file under $CATALINA_HOME/conf/log4j.properties does not seem to overwrite what was set in the war file's configurations.We're running our installation via the .war file method on RHEL6. $CATALINA_HOME defaults to /usr/share/tomcat6 with a bunch of symlinks for every sub-directory within. /usr/share/tomca6/logs points to /var/log/tomcat6, which works fine for everything except alfresco.log.
