Subject: [Dhis2-devs] Audit log error with Tomcat
To: "Jason Pickering" <jason.p.pickering@xxxxxxxxx>

This audiot stuff is not very good since it will put the log file at the
location where you start the servlet container. So I am guessing you start
tomcat from a location where the process doesn't have write privilegies and
then dhis fails when trying to create the file...?
