This would imply that I have to restart Tomcat at rotation time which I do not want. Velocity seems to keep the log file open forever in my configuration, so even if I rename it, it continues filling up at the new location because the fd is never closed. > I'm not familiar with SUSE (I run RedHat), but there > may be a log management facility where all you would > do is add the full path to the log file, number of > active log files you want in the rotation, the naming > convention (logfile.log.mmddyyyy for example), and > what to do with the log file once it falls out of > rotation (archive, delete, etc.). There is something like that, but I do not want to rely on it, rather write the rotation script myself. But then I am stuck at above problem. I will go for the velocity mailing list and learn some configuration. Carsten -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
