Thanks for the response.
So how do I stop tomcat from logging to catalina.out and into a
different file?
Basically I want to send all tomcat output to a file that can roll on a
daily basis.
Any ideas or examples?
Thanks,
-Riz.

Catalina.out is the redirected standard output (Console output in
log4j parlance) of tomcat. I don't think you can roll it in log4j.
Best bet is to steer as much logging as possible away from
catalina.out into a file logger you can roll.

Hi,
We are trying to use log4j to roll the catalina.out file on a daily
basis. The attached log4j.properties file has been placed in the
CATALINA_HOME/common/classes directory. But the file does not roll over.
Please help. catalina file is getting long.
Thanks,
