Issue

I have lots of debug.DATE.log files in /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat. These should get cleaned up automatically.

Hi,
the log files in /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat are managed by pki and IPA is not changing the default configuration. Could you open an issue against pki at https://github.com/dogtagpki/pki/issues ?

Filed https://github.com/dogtagpki/pki/issues/3731

@orion thanks for opening the PKI issue.

I use a script to clean these log files up automatically. IMO freeipa should ship a script like this to work around dogtag's lack of a way to rotate these files automatically.

Here's the script: https://github.com/dogtagpki/pki/issues/3731#issuecomment-1519045869

I'm happy to contribute this to freeipa, I'll work on a PR if you think this is a good idea...
