I got the permissions wrong, the adm group is now allowed to write to
/var/log/tomcat9 but not to enter it. Try 2770 instead of 2760.

Hi Emmanuel,
Good news: I updated "/etc/tmpfiles.d/tomcat9.conf" (the file I created) with
the new value of 2770. Deleted all the logs inside "/val/log/tomcat9" and
restarted Ubuntu. "catalina.out" got created and populated.
Bad news: Then I deleted all the logs inside "/val/log/tomcat9" and just
restarted Tomcat (which is something I do sometimes, in production).
"catalina.out" didn't get created this time.
Just to confirm, again I deleted all the logs inside "/val/log/tomcat9" and
restarted Ubuntu. "catalina.out" got created and populated again.
Any ideas?
Brian
