Re: rotation of catalina.out on restart but no truncation
2012/11/9 Meik Suchlich meik.suchl...@brandad-systems.de: Hi, we've got an effekt on catalina.out. We don't use hot deployment. Instead we stop and start our tomcat for installing new Version. The restart causes rotation of catalina.out, but does not truncate. How can we solve this? 1. Standard Tomcat scripts neither rotate nor truncate the file. So what is your question? Are you asking how to truncate a file on a Unix system? 2. Do not write anything to the Console (and configure your logging to log nothing to the Console). Then there will be no need to bother with an empty catalina.out file.

But first, have a look at /etc/init.d/tomcat(version). And if you find a problem there, you should contact the person who wrote that script, on whatever Linux Debian list he lives. There is nothing the Tomcat developers and other people on this list can do about it. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org

You'll need to find the script and adjust it to meet your needs. catalina.-mm-dd.log is a proper log file, as written by FileHandler. It is *not* a rotation of catalina.out.
