## Servlet Output

`ServletContext.log` messages are sent to the server log.

By default, the `System.out` and `System.err` output of servlets are sent to the server log, and during startup server log messages are echoed to the `System.err` output. Also by default, there is no Windows-only console for the `System.err` output.

To change these defaults using the Administration Console, select the Logger Settings component under the relevant configuration, then check or uncheck these boxes:

- Log Messages to Standard Error - If checked, `System.err` output is sent to the server log. If unchecked, `System.err` output is sent to the system default location only.

- Write to System Log - If checked, `System.out` output is sent to the server log. If unchecked, `System.out` output is sent to the system default location only.
