Hi Chris, Take a look at my gist and it should make sense. The log handler is "1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler" and the problem is that it is writing logs to "test.2014-01-38log" instead of "test.log". Again, I agree that I need to upgrade and that is in progress. But that doesn't change where I am today and that I want to make (what appears to be) a supported configuration change so that I can pass log rotation responsibilities to my preferred application. -- -Vye --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
