Log filesystem changes? Track what a java app modifies on the fs?

I’m trying to run a java app that creates settings/configuration files, but I’m not sure where and how exactly it’s creating those said files. For that I was thinking perhaps I could log any filesystem changes in a dragnet way (as in, log the entire filesystem). Would anyone know how to do that without much hassle? Tried...

WozenfeldDistrict OP ,

Thanks for the help! With the -ff option in strace I was able to tell it to branch out to all the sub-processes that are launched. Due to this, I don’t think lsof is going to be useful in my case, at least not without pulling my hair out, haha.

Fortunately I was able to find exactly what I needed with strace, even though it was a bit like finding the needle in the haystack.
