Package: tomcat8
Version: 8.0.39-1
Severity: minor
Hi,
The default server.xml shipped with tomcat8 has an access log valve config as
follows:
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve" directory="logs"
prefix="localhost_access_log" suffix=".txt"
pattern="%h %l %u %t "%r" %s %b" />
So files are produced in /var/log/tomcat8 with filenames like:
localhost_access_log.2016-11-25.txt
However, the log rotation script /etc/cron.daily/tomcat8 has:
LOGEXT=log
and so is looking for files which end .log.
This means the access logs are never rotated and just build up until the
partition is full.
Either the rotation script needs to also match .txt files or the valve should
be creating .log files.
Thanks,
Scott
