I used to start tomcat from its bin folder with the startup.bat. By running that script it opened a java window in which I can see the outputs from tomcat. However, I've been told that this is not the right way to start tomcat on a windows server. Therefore I start tomcat now over the service program. By doing so no java window is being opened anymore and therefore I can't see the output msg from tomcat.
I have also looked into the logs folder of tomcat. Those saved outputs are not the same as the one I had/have in java window. Does anyone know where I can find those outputs?
Many thanks in advance for any advices.

Access the Apache Tomcat console by browsing to http://localhost:8080/ (if installed as a non-root user) or http://localhost/ (if installed as the root user).
Console. When running Tomcat on unixes, the console output is usually redirected to the file named catalina. out . The name is configurable using an environment variable.
The main Apache Tomcat configuration file is at /opt/bitnami/tomcat/conf/server. xml. Once Apache Tomcat starts, it will create several log files in the /opt/bitnami/tomcat/logs directory. The main log file is the catalina.
By default, the catalina. out file is located in the logs directory under Tomcat's root directory. For example, /opt/netiq/idm/apps/tomcat/logs/catalina. out.
If we assume your install is in C:\program files\apache software foundation\apache-tomcat{ver}\
then it is inside, in the log directory, in a file catalina.out.
C:\program files\apache software foundation\apache-tomcat{ver}\logs\catalina.out
It's worth to note the name of the file depends on your configuration, also the name of the logs directory can be different depending on configuration but I assume you preserved default config.
