Hi sarathkumar13
How are you able to access the tomcat log in the system log? I am facing 403 even I am the system admin of the environment.

Did you ever resolve this? I used to have access to the tomcat folder, but now I am also getting 403 forbidden. We are hosted on Appian cloud.

IN that folder Tomcat stores logs about the internal state of the server, like for example, garbagge collector and similar information

I am actually system admin. So access issue should not be there. But anyways let me check once and confirm

Oh no no. So thats actually a folder.

I think what you are really looking for is the tomcat-stdout file. Try searching for this and you should find your details in this.

Yes log files are accessible in community edition but I'm talking specific to 'tomcat' log files in system logs.

mentioned as "I am trying to open tomcat log file from system logs."

This is in our dev environment

Well, I disagree. The logs files are equally accessible on your community edition too.

Hi ,

Which environment are you using , is it community edition or other environment?

In community edition instance tomcat files are not accessible. if it is other instance check the privileges you have to access or contact Appian support.
