catalina.out rolling with Tomcat 6.0
Fixed it, turns out the standard logging configuration defines a file logger and also a console logger. The file logger goes to the daily catalina log, and the console logger writes to catalina.out. Fix was to change in conf/logging.properties: .handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler, java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler to .handlers = 1catalina.org.apache.juli.FileHandler That stops anything getting written to catalina.out
