I’m not able to tail a catalina.out file using tail -f -catalina.out
error shown is tail: cannot open input
logged in as tomcat user. the file has -rw-r–r– rights. Not sure why I’m not able to tail it
even after trying –retry.
The file is available, i do not get missing file error. File shows 1.970MiB size. Any suggestions?
You have a typo in your command (a starting dash), the correct would be:
that assumes you’re inside the directory that contains the
catalina.outfile.
