Oops, type too fast. I want catalina.out to be rotate daily but Tomcat give me extra files (catalina.out.1.gz, catalina.out.2.gz...catalina. out.30.gz). I don't want those extra files. Any chance to disable that?
The extra files are generated by Tomcat by default? I do not specify those file rotation anywhere.
