             Summary: Redirect cronjob standard output to log files
                 Key: COMDEV-162
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-162
             Project: Community Development
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Projects New, Reporter Tool
            Reporter: Sebb


At present, the projects.a.o and reporter.a.o cronjob output goes to the 
www-data mailbox. This is getting quite large, and is not particularly easy to 
view as all the jobs are in the same file.

I think it would be more useful to redirect the output to separate log files 
for each job in separate log directories e.g. under /var/logs.

This would allow the use of logrotate to manage the log files if required.

In order to make it easy to check the log files, it might be worth considering 
making the most recent ones available via the web. I don't think there is any 
private information in the logs, but this would need to be checked first.
