Description Coty Sutherland 2016-08-25 18:30:00 UTC

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1370261 +++

Description of problem:
After the update from systemv to systemd for tomcat the service no longer writes console output to catalina.out. Instead, all of the console output is just written to stdout, which is received by the journal (and can be reviewed with `journalctl -u tomcat`. This means that nothing is redirected to catalina.out like systemv did, and therefore it's always empty. Additionally, there is a logrotate script included in the package that rotates the empty file weekly.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tomcat-7.0.69-10.el7.noarch

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. `yum install tomcat` to get the package installed (note that it installs an empty catalina.out file in /var/log/tomcat)
2. `service tomcat start && service tomcat stop` to get some logging
3. Observe that /var/log/tomcat/catalina.out remains empty while another file (catalina.$(date).log) is populated with the logging. You can also see the stdout by using `journalctl -u tomcat`.

Actual results:
The tomcat processes stdout is no longer redirected to catalina.out, but instead received by the journal.

Expected results:
This is expected behavior, but the bug is being filed to cleanup the catalina.out file and logrotate script that rotates it.

Additional info:
The file and script can be deleted because tomcat handles it's on file rotation by default.

I moved catalina.out and the logrotate script into the JSVC subpackage, where it's actually used.
