Hello,

I need to limit the size of stdout and stderr log file which is automatically created on tomcat>log location. I am using tomcat7 and windows
I used may configuration but it is not working.
Please suggest me how to limit the size of log file or roll these files.

I used
log4j.appender.stderr = org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender
log4j.appender.stderr.Threshold = WARN
log4j.appender.stderr.Target = System.err
log4j.appender.stderr.layout = org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.stderr.layout.ConversionPattern = %-5p %d [%t][%F:%L] : %m%n

I did changes in context.xml of conf folder
Context swallowOutput="true"

Tried other configuration also but nothing happen.

I don't do anything in java, but I searched and found this to redirect those errors to a different file

and the last mail on http://apache-logging.6191.n7.nabble.com/RE-redirecting-Stdout-and-stderr-to-a-different-log-file-td9112.html
