How to set intellij to show logs in the logs tab and not the output tab
In the application server Run/Debug configuration open the Logs tab and specify the full log file path there.
You can just search your disk for algo_js.log
file and specify its location.

When I use intellijs' (12.1.4) built-in tomcat the logs are being written to the output tab of the debug panel and not to a the normal localhost log tab.
I followed this document and added my log4j.properties which works fine in the output tab but it still does write the logs to right tab.
When I pack the project and deploy it on standalone tomcat I can see the logs.
Normally I would not care but the problem with the output tab is that you can not search in it.
This is my log4j and I have tired it both with ConsoleAppender and RollingFileAppender.
log4j.rootLogger=TRACE, A1 log4j.appender.A1=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender log4j.appender.A1.File=${catalina.home}/logs/algo_js.log log4j.appender.A1.MaxFileSize=500KB log4j.appender.A1.MaxBackupIndex=5 log4j.appender.A1.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout # Print the date in ISO 8601 format log4j.appender.A1.layout.ConversionPattern=%d [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n
Any ideas what I am missing?
