Tomcat catalina logging

I am using SpringMVC framework and Java 8 for development. In the Tomcat catalina.out file, the date timestamp and threadid are not added along with my application logs.
I am getting the logs as below
INFO [main] org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol.pause Pausing ProtocolHandler ["http-nio-9090"]
INFO [main] org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol.pause Pausing ProtocolHandler ["https-jsse-nio-8443"]
INFO [main] org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService.stopInternal Stopping service [Catalina]
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /apps/opt/sws/logs
Request SecurityContextHolderAwareRequestWrapper
Beginning of the api method
I need to have the date timestamp and threadid be added along with my application
example:-
2022-01-08 12:51:23:986[Thread - http-nio-exec-4id] INFO [main] org.apache.coyote.AbstractProtocol.pause Pausing ProtocolHandler ["http-nio-9090"]

2022-01-08 12:58:45:986[Thread - http-nio-exec-9id] INFO Beginning of the api method
2022-01-08 12:58:55:986[Thread - http-nio-exec-47id] ERROR Exception happened while loading
Please help me, where I need to change the settings and provide any samples.

You could do the followings to achieve this. Add the following line to log4j.properties.
java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter.format=%1$tF %1$tT [%4$-7s] %5$s %n
else you can also change Tomcat logging to log4j. You may refer here.

Tomcat server not shutting down during first time

I am developing a Queue message proof of concept on Spring-MVC 5.x, Java 8 and Tomcat server 9.x. While reading the queue messages from the Oracle table, thread warning messages appending in the Catalina log file.
If I try to shutdown and start the tomcat server, the tomcat server is not shutting down during the first time but on the next call tomcat server is shutting down and a memory leak warning message is logged in the log file.
Please help why I am unable to shutdown the tomcat server during the first time.

OSX El Cap, Apache2, Tomcat 8, Lucee 5

I have posted in the Lucee google group, but after four days, i'm just not getting the support I need. I have a feeling a Tomcat expert will be able to point me in the right direction fairly quickly, so I'm posting here.
OSX El Cap, Apache2, Tomcat 8, Lucee 5.
On http://localhost, i get the Apache "It Works!" page.
on http://localhost:8080, i get the default Lucee page, served from
/usr/local/Cellar/tomcat/8.5.3/libexec/apps/lucee
On http://localhost:8080/manager/html and http://localhost:8080/host-manager/html, I get the Tomcat admin pages.
I have a directory, /Volumes/Storage/{companyname}/sites/www-test-app/www that contains index.cfm and index.htm
I have www-test-app set up in my HOSTS file.
I have a host entry in httpd-vhosts.conf for www-test-app
I have an entry in tomcat's server.xml file:
<Host name="www-test-app" appBase="webapps" unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true">
<Context path="" docBase="/Volumes/Storage/{companyname}/sites/_test-app/www/">
<JarScanner scanClassPath="false"/>
</Context>
</Host>
When i call up http://www-test-app/index.htm, I get my static test page.
When I call up http://www-test-app/index.cfm I get this error:
HTTP Status 404 -
type Status report
message
description The requested resource is not available.
Apache Tomcat/8.5.3
I have stopped and restarted apache and tomcat to make sure config files are read.
THE BIGGEST CLUE:
I do not see WEB-INF being created under
/Volumes/Storage/{companyname}/sites/www-test-app/www
My directory permissions are 777 for this directory and all subdirectories:
/Volumes/Storage/{companyname}/sites
I'm not sure if I need to make ownership changes though.
Apache2 was included with El Cap. Apache testconfig yields "syntax OK".
Tomcat was installed via Homebrew.
Lucee was installed via WAR file per this page:
http://brianflove.com/2015/03/05/lucee-on-mac-os-x-yosemite-quick-start/
I am stuck from here... but oh so close, since the default Lucee page looks great, including any cfoutput/variables.

Can't find the disconnect... where do i go from here?

RESOLVED {sigh}
Well, I’m totally ready to kick my own a$$. The solution was way more simple than I thought.
My (mis)understanding was that configuring the Lucee EXPRESS to use the local Apache install on the mac just wasn’t going to work – that I had to use the tomcat built-in web server. The tomcat web server, because it’s based on Java, is in fact case-sensitive when it comes to filenames in the URL – “Foo.jpg” is NOT the same as “foo.jpg” in the eyes of the ‘cat. This is why I had given up on Lucee Express.
I do recall trying to get local Apache to work with Lucee Express, but since so much time has passed since that attempt, I couldn’t begin to tell you what I was doing wrong. I just know I couldn’t get it to work – probably mucking with config files that I actually didn’t need to.
Anyway, the solution is simple as all heck… download Lucee Express. Then just configure virtual hosts in apache as one normally would, as Apache needs to be told to proxy any coldfusion requests to tomcat/lucee… like so:
<Directory "/Volumes/Storage/company/sites/_test-app/www">
Allow From All
AllowOverride All
Options +Indexes
Require all granted
DirectoryIndex index.cfm
</Directory>
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName "www-test-app"
ServerAlias "www-test-app.*.*.*.*.xip.io"
DocumentRoot "/Volumes/Storage/company/sites/_test-app/www"
<Proxy *>
Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Proxy>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPassMatch ^/(.+\.cf[cm])(/.*)?$ ajp://localhost:8009/$1$2
</VirtualHost>
Then on the other side, add a similar entry for the Tomcat server.xml file:
<Host name="www-test-app" appBase="webapps" autoDeploy="true" unpackWARs="true">
<Context path="" docBase="/Volumes/Storage/company/sites/_test-app/www">
<JarScanner scanClassPath="false"/>
</Context>
</Host>
Then (damn it!!!) just start Apache and start Tomcat/Lucee. That’s it. Tomcat will create the WEB-INF files in each virtual host specified. The tomcat web server is still running on port 8888, and the ajp connector is still running on 8009.
http://www-test-app gives the result via Apache (case-insensitive urls).
Since Apache has root permission to listen on port 80, it does so… and passes CF requests on to port 8009.
BONUS: One can still test via the Tomcat web server…
http://www-test-app:8888 gives the result via Tomcat web server.
If one wanted to bypass/refrain from Apache and use the Tomcat web server, completely self-contained, BUT not have to add “:8888” to all their urls, homebrew for mac can install “haproxy” which, when run as root and configured using a simple config file, can receive requests on port 80 and forward them to port 8888.
For any NEW sites where the desire is to make sure file names are properly specified in code (case sensitivity-wise), this would be my ultimate solution. For legacy apps that were originally run on a case-insensitive stack, the use of the local Apache web server is the way to go.

Java web-app debugging not possible due to direct undeploy on debug

When i try to debug my webapp it starts up the tomcat server and the application, but shuts down the debugger shortly before the app gets usable. I see the debugging toolbar for a second before it vanishes again, though the app keeps running.

System is Netbeans 6.8 on MacOS 10.6.2.

You should see if the TC server is still in debug mode. The easiest way to do that is to Debug->Attach Debugger to localhost;11555. If it is still running 'debuggable', you will be able to do a fair bit of debugging that way.

I had similar problem where debugging started but kind of stopped immediately. The application was deployed however. I was not even able to attach to debugger manually, even if the Tomcat was running in debug mode. By creating a simple debuggable hello world project and starting debugging it also made debugger to break to my "problem project"'s break points as well.. But this was not really way to work.
My problem was "solved" by dropping mysql-connector-java.jar from my web project. I don't see any reasoning, but it simply works now. FYI also, the Netbean's Tomcat config's property "Enable JDBC driver deployment" did not have effect.
My environment was Netbeans 6.9.1 and project type was maven2, run on on Win7.
