-------------------------------

             Summary: bin/solr does not rotate console log file
                 Key: SOLR-8232
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8232
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: scripts and tools
    Affects Versions: 5.3
            Reporter: Upayavira
            Priority: Minor


The bin/solr script, when started with bin/solr start, uses this command to start Solr:

{code} nohup "$JAVA" "${SOLR_START_OPTS[@]}" $SOLR_ADDL_ARGS -jar start.jar \
        "-XX:OnOutOfMemoryError=$SOLR_TIP/bin/oom_solr.sh $SOLR_PORT $SOLR_LOGS_DIR" "${SOLR_JETTY_CONFIG[@]}" \
        1>"$SOLR_LOGS_DIR/solr-$SOLR_PORT-console.log" 2>&1 & echo $! > "$SOLR_PID_DIR/solr-$SOLR_PORT.pid"
{code}

This sends console output to stdout, with no means of rotating the log file, meaning it will eventually fill the drive unless restarted.

I would propose that stdout be written to dev/null and we use proper means for handling logging, which can do proper log rotation as configured by the user.
