Description Ralf Hauser 2021-01-02 11:52:15 UTC 
catalina.out says

<<[2021-01-02 12:44:56] [info] 02-Jan-2021 12:44:56.117 SEVERE [main] org.apache.catalina.valves.AccessLogValve.open Failed to open access log file [/var/lib/tomcat9/logs/localhost_access_log.2021-01-02.txt]>>

however (on debian10)  
 sudo -u tomcat less /var/lib/tomcat9/logs/localhost_access_log.2021-01-02.txt
works

1) in this case, please say under which user java is running 
  (probably under "tomcat", but...)
