             Summary: wildfly-init-debian.sh overwrites previous log
                 Key: WFLY-5415
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-5415
             Project: WildFly
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Scripts
    Affects Versions: 9.0.1.Final
         Environment: Wildfly 9.0.1 Final on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS running the Zanata (zanata.org) translations platform.
            Reporter: Elizabeth K. Joseph
            Assignee: Tomaz Cerar
            Priority: Minor


We had to restart Wildfly on our Ubuntu 14.04 LTS server due to some issues with the application on top of it, and during the restart the init script wiped out our old logs and replaced them with the new logs, leaving us with none of the debugging information needed to track down our problem.

It looks like this line is to blame in bin/init.d/wildfly-init-debian.sh:

cat /dev/null > "$JBOSS_CONSOLE_LOG"

Currently using wildfly-9.0.1.Final.
