WebWare don't manage it's logs. it print log in stdin. so I run AppServer like:: $ APPSERVER/AppServer >> Logs/webware.log 2>&1 command. But this method cause to large log file. so I fix problem with newsyslog and some fix on Launch.py In your application's Launch.py add below lines:: import signal def setupSignal(): def handlerHUP(signum, frame): sys.exit(3) signal.signal( signal.SIGHUP, handlerHUP) and edit main():: def main(args): global webwarePath, appWorkPath setupSignal() bla bla ... edit /etc/newsyslog.conf:: /$APPSERVER/Logs/webware.log webware:webware 644 5 1000 * Z /$APPSERVER/appserverpid.txt then run newsyslog. you will see:: $ ls -l /$APPSERVER/Logs/webware.log* -rw-r--r-- 1 webware webware 75 4 25 10:59 /$APPSERVER/Logs/webware.log -rw-r--r-- 1 webware webware 187907 4 25 10:59 /$APPSERVER/Logs/webware.log.0.gz
