Kevan Miller commented on GERONIMO-5565:
----------------------------------------

Conceptually, yes (I didn't check the specifics of your config). However, this 
won't capture STDOUT/STDERR (e.g. callers of System.out.println())

Ideally, we'd rebind System.out and System.err to a PrintStream that "logs" 
output to the rolling "console" file.

This would be a nice feature to have.

> By default, Geronimo will log WARN (and above) messages to STDOUT. When you 
> start Geronimo in the background, this means that any WARN, ERROR, etc 
> messages will be sent to the file geronimo.out. There is no guard for this 
> file. So, it will grow unbounded. Unlike log files, which are configured with 
> a maximum size.
> We need procedures and mechanisms to prevent the geronimo.out file from 
> growing too large.
