With MapServer 4.x, LOG is only used to log errors (as you noticed) and all DEBUG output goes to stderr, in the case of Apache that is Apache's error_log file. Note that you can also set DEBUG ON at the layer level to get more debug info for specific layers.

Starting with MapServer 5.0, the DEBUG output location is controlled by the CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" "/path/to/logfile" directive, and support for multiple debug levels has been added. More info is available in RFC-28: http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/development/rfc/ms-rfc-28

Hi

I'm trying to have lots of debug information into log file.

In the mapfile there is :

MAP bloc : DEBUG ON
WEB bloc : LOG "/tmp/mapserver.log"
in many LAYER bloc DEBUG ON

mapserver is configure as follow :

./mapserv -vMapServer version 4.10.2 OUTPUT=GIF OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=WBMP
OUTPUT=SVG SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER
SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT SUPPORTS=WCS_SERVER SUPPORTS=THREADS SUPPORTS=GEOS
INPUT=EPPL7 INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE
DEBUG=MSDEBUG

mapserver is running into apache httpd 2.0.59 (compiled, not from rpm)
on Red Hat Linux.

/tmp/mapserver.log remains empty, and I get only "error" (that seems
not to be errors) level message into the httpd error_log file.

is it possible to have these informations into the mapserver log file
? (/tmp/mapserver.log). ? if yes, how ?

and, is it possible to have a more verbose log ?  with debug/warn/...
informations ?

Regards
Patrice
