You could add a customer Logger tag to the context in your server.xml and add the swallowOutput="true" attribute, this will put standard out and standard error into the log file that you specify which is rotated on a daily basis automatically for you by tomcat.
Ta Matt -----Original Message----- From: Veera Sivakumar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 June 2004 10:47 To: Tomcat Users List Subject: Managing Tomcat logs Hi, I am using Tomcat as web server for my application. I start Tomcat using windows service. All the logs generated by the Application are written in to a file called stdout.log which is under tomca/logs folder. I have noticed that with continuous use of application,stdout file size increasing to a large extent. To delete the it I have to stop the tomcat. Is there any way that I can manage the logs date wise automatically(without manual intervention). I am not using any third party tool for logging. The logging mechanism I use is very simple. We have class Debug.java that have a method log(String); This log() method use System.out.println(); In the application, I use Debug.log("Exception"); I will be more happy if there is any way to manage logs. I have also noticed the following logs generated by Tomcat: 1.localhost_log.2004-06-18.txt 2.localhost_access_log.2004_06_22.txt How to maintain these logs?. Can we off them permanently? Thanks in advance.
