Re: Barracuda 1.2.0 released

Ahhh....ok,

I figured out where trace.log is being written on my system.  When I start 
Tomcat using the startup scripts in CATALINA_HOME/bin, that is where the 
trace.log gets written.  When I start it via an NT Service, it gets written 
to C:\WINNT\system32.  So, it is basically writing it to wherever the 
Tomcat process was started.  I assume that you are calling the startup 
scripts in Tomcat, so it would be in CATALINA_HOME/bin on barracudamvc.org.

Now, the problem with making the path "/tmp/trace.log" is that the error we 
were seeing on Linux, but is now fixed will now occur on Windows because it 
won't be able to resolve the UNIX path.  The solution to this is to fix the 
CATALINA_HOME/bin directory to allow for writing the trace.log and changing 
the path back to "./trace.log".  This will make things work on both Linux 
and Windows alike.

The other error should be solved by shutting down the server, doing a clean 
rebuild, and then starting things back up again.  That path should be 
replaced by the <copyrepl> taskdef with the proper event name.

If you can do the above, that would be great!  I will be away from the 
computer for a little while, so I won't be able to respond until later.

thanks Shawn!
