Catalina.out eats my harddisk space

Hi, 

I am facing a *catalina.out log* file problem in tomcat5. It eats my 
harddisk space like anythink. My harddisk size is 80GB hard disk. Everyday i 
have to remove the catalina.out file. the nextday it fills the harddisk. and 
i cann't run tomcat. What could be the problem. Please help me if anybody 
knew to this issue. 

Regards

May be you are running Tomcat with log level set at debug/trace. Check
server.xml to see the log level there. Or it can be the application.
Check for files named logging.properties, log4j.properties in Tomcat
installation.

catalina.out is never written to by tomcat itself. (except if no loggers for 
commons-logging are configured) So ..

1) Do not use System.out
2) Do not use Throwable.printStackTrace()
3) Configure you logging (add log4j, or add a commons-logging configuration)
