This prompted to actually *look* at commons-demon and it looks like there is some support: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-95 If you issue a SIGUSR1 to the process, it will re-open the output files. I suspect that you could do something like this to rotate: > STAMP=[obtain timestamp] ren catalina.out catalina.out.%STAMP% > pskill SIGUSR1 %CATALINA_PID% You can get 'pskill' from Sysinternals, but I'm not sure if it will work. This is obviously a very *NIX-oriented feature. I would head-on over to the commons list and ask about log rotation suggestions on win32. That is, if you are using Tomcat's service launcher. You probably should be, honestly. - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.17 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk+yjo4ACgkQ9CaO5/Lv0PCbqQCfTlovQW06feOq9nNaosg9dUkv bWEAoIoFqUed8lPHrrXcE9BCoN7nGO1z =xFEl -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
