Howdy, This is a FAQ, you could search the archives. A couple of things: 1. catalina.out isn't rotated on unix either. 2. Add swallowOutput=true to you context to make System.out and System.err go into the context logger, which is rotated nightly. 3. Don't use System.out/System.err so much ;) Consider a logging framework like log4j. 4. There are external, free, 3rd party log rotating tools out there, google.
