POServlet post request logging to Eclipse console

copied!<p>I'm writing my first Java EE application, using EJBs, Servlet, JSPs and the likes.<br> I'm using JBOSS 4.2 AS and Eclipse as and IDE, including tasks like starting and stopping the server. </p> <p>What I can't understand is that while logging instructions inside a jsp, like:</p> <pre><code><% System.out.println("Log this!"); %> </code></pre> <p>log as expected, both in Eclipse console and in <code>$SERVER_HOME/server/default/log/server.log</code>, any kind of logging instruction I've tried inside a servlet fails. </p> <p>Here's the code from the jsp that calls the servlet:</p> <pre><code><form action="MyServlet" method="POST" accept-charset="utf-8"> <input type="text" name="id" value="" id="id"> <input type="submit" value="Go &rarr;"> </form> </code></pre> <p>And of course the servlet itslef:</p> <pre><code>public class MyServlet extends HttpServlet { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; public MyServlet() { super(); System.out.println("Hi, I'm your servlet's constructor"); } protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException { System.err.println("Hi, this is your servlet on system.err"); System.out.println("Hi, this is your servlet on system.out"); System.out.println(request); ServletContext sc = getServletContext(); sc.log("Hi, this is your servlet on servlet context!"); } } </code></pre> <p>Am I missing something obvious? Doing everything wrong, or just looking in the wrong place?</p>
