Description

Often when a Derby issue occurs, the derby.log is the one thing that does get retrieved, but often gets passed through many layers before it reaches the people supporting Derby. It would be helpful if derby.log also included the following to help instruct customers how to change derby.properties or look again at the log.
1) derby.properties location.
2) derby.log location or indicate how error log redirection is defined.
