How Can I Configure Tomcat to Rotate Logs Automatically?

I know how to change the settings for the Activity Log so it rotates and purges automatically, but does anyone know how to do that for the Tomcat logs that come with VXML Server - as they also get quite large.

Is there a way to configure Tomcat to rotate its logs (for example, catalina.out) when it reaches a certain size?

Thanks, Janine

Update to previous post - the log file that I need to rotate is Tomcat's Stdout log - this is Tomcat 5.5 on Windows - as it gets too large.

Does anyone have a way to do this on Vxml Server WiTHOUT restarting Tomcat?

Thanks, Janine

A quick Google search brought up this link. Not sure it will work, but it does seem to show how to do what you want. The Google search has lots of other results you can check out.
