Hi, my catalina.out is getting bigger and bigger.
In order to have smaller catalina.out I noticed this environment-variable: CATALINA_OUT_CMD Inside the catalina.sh is documented: # CATALINA_OUT_CMD (Optional) Command which will be executed and receive # as its stdin the stdout and stderr from the Tomcat java # process. If CATALINA_OUT_CMD is set, the value of # CATALINA_OUT will be used as a named pipe. # No default. # Example (all one line) # CATALINA_OUT_CMD="/usr/bin/rotatelogs -f $CATALINA_BASE/logs/catalina.out.%Y-%m-%d.log 86400" I try to use that example and export this variable before start of tomcat: export CATALINA_OUT_CMD="/usr/bin/rotatelogs -f /home/tomcat/apache-tomcat-9.0.75/logs/catalina.out.%Y-%m-%d.log 86400" Unfortunately the tomcat does not work anymore, instead this message appear: /home/tomcat/apache-tomcat-9.0.75/logs/catalina.out exists and is not a named pipe. Start aborted. Any Ideas?
