access log/s

Hello,
     How may I configure Tomcat to output monthly, rather than daily
access log files?

Thanks

Paul.

Use a property called fileDateFormat. It is equal to something that gets 
passed to SimpleDateFormat().

For example to rotate each month ...
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
          directory="logs"  prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
          fileDateFormat="yyyy-MM"
          pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>

Or to rotate each hour ...
<Valve className="org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve"
          directory="logs"  prefix="localhost_access_log." suffix=".txt"
          fileDateFormat="yyyy-MM-dd.HH"
          pattern="common" resolveHosts="false"/>
