Tomcat's logs are rotated nightly as you've probably noticed by now.
The catalina.out log is simply a trap for System.out/System.err and is
not rotated regularly by tomcat.  You can set swallowOutput=true on your
contexts to direct System.out/System.err output from them to the context
logs which are rotated, or you can use a 3rd program like cronlog to
rotate your logs.

Tomcat does not support all the configuration options of log4j's
RollingFileAppenders.  It is the server administrator's responsibility
to ensure enough space for logs: this is true for any server-side
program.
