Hi,
Below is something I got from the list from a much older post, if that's
the case, how do I tell tomcat to rotate in that fashion (monthly or
weekly instead of daily)
The workaround I am using now is to have tomcat create a unique servlet
log file daily (using timestamp in filename), and I have a cronjob that
runs at midnight that creates a symlink to the current day's logfile (my
developers are lazy like that :) (hope none of them read this list)
outstanding questions I have:
1) how do I make it so that tomcat will only rotate logs weekly or
monthly?
2) can I make it so that the servlet logs aren't overwritten every time
I restart tomcat?
3) why does tomcat decide to rotate the logs at 1am instead of
midnight?
4) Are there any other attributes to LogSetter? (I only see 5 in the
doc, with nothing pertaining to rotation)
Thank you very, very much for any help you can give me. -Ray

FYI. Proposed Tomcat 3.3 Release , already cycles logs in a flexible
basis, allowing to use Month,Day,Year or whatever combination you like
as rotation time .
Tomcat 4.0 already has this capability too..but only in daily rotation..
