Thanks, JB!
I SSH'd in to the karaf console and gave the following commands:
config:edit org.ops4j.pax.logging
config:property-set log4j2.appender.rolling.policies.size.size 1MB
config:update
(default for debian logrotate seems to be 100kB so I picked a middle
ground between that and 16MB...:-) )
This morning, the logs had rotated:
/var/log/karaf:
total used in directory 16740 available 11603336
drwxr-xr-x 2 karaf karaf 4096 May 25 12:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4096 May 26 05:09 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 karaf karaf 63507 May 26 07:07 karaf.log
-rw-r--r-- 1 karaf karaf 15024655 May 25 12:22 karaf.log.1
Thanks again!
