"Access is denied" message while deploying spring app in tomcat 6
access-denied, filenotfoundexception, java, tomcat
Solution
Check if the following file exists:
c:\program files\apache software foundation\tomcat 6.0\logs\catalina.2010.02.16.log
Your exception says `<Access is denied>`, so maybe the file is open in another application or you are missing permissions?
Problem
While trying to deploy my spring app on tomcat 6 I get an error saying ``` java.util.logging.errormanager:4 java.io.filenotfoundexception: c:\program files\apache software foundation\tomcat 6.0\logs\catalina.2010.02.16.log <Access is denied> at java.io.fileoutputstream.openappend <native method> at java.io.fileoutputstream.<init><unknown source> at java.io.filewriter.<init><unknown source> at apache.juli.filehandler.open<filehandler.java:259> at apache.juli.filehandler.open<filehandler.java:59> at apache.juli.filehandler.open<filehandler.java:50> at sun.reflect.nativeconstructoraccessorImpl.newInstance0<native method> at sun.reflect.delegatingconstructoraccessorImpl.newInstance<unknown source> at sun.reflect.constructor.newInstance<unknown source> at java.lang.class.newinstance0<unknown source> at org.apache.juli.classloaderlogmanager.readconfiguration<classloaderlogmanager.java:418> ..... ..... at java.util.logging.logmanager$2.run<unknown source> ..... ..... ``` Is this because Tomcat hasn't been installed properly? Or do I need some permissions to use Tomcat? Or are some important tomcat files missing? Or something else?
