Thank you for some direction. I'll go ahead and put back the logging as it was from the vendor using the logging.properties file, etc. etc. so as to minimize their lack of support due to me changing a lot in their product.
Then I'll go on to try option b. I'll report back with how it goes. -Joleeb Joleen, On 11/24/15 4:31 PM, Joleen Barker wrote: > I have setup the logrotate using cron in the past and it was very > successful on the Linux boxes but I could not find an equivalent setup for > AIX.

JULI can do log-rotation as well, though the options aren't as nice as log4j. Log4j is a really great logging system, actually. -chris --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
