Tomcat catalina.out logrotate 在 redhat 上无法正常工作

Question

I am trying to roll the log catalina.out on a webserver using logrotate. I have been able to roll the log and a log catalina.out-dateext is created. But I notice that the log is being written in the new file catalina.out-dateext . Is there something that need to be done on the webserver?

Thank you

Add copytruncate in your /etc/pex/tomcat file. For more info about all the options: vineetmanohar.com/2010/03/howto-rotate-tomcat-catalina-out
