Tomcat 5.0 rolling stdout

 Hi

The stdout log file on a tomcat server is getting pretty full do to the
amount of data being written out by a third party application.

Is there a way to have stdout.log rolling every day/limited by size, rather
than having one big file? (using log4j.properties or something).

We are running Tomcat 5.0.30 on Windows as a service.

I am new to Tomcat, would appreciate help.

Thanks in advance.

Puneet

Thanks Steve.

'logrotate' did the trick. There is a windows port available at
http://www.datori.org/?p=7 . Thanks Nick !

Cheers

Tell the makers of the third party app to use a logging mechanism.
