Hi Willy, Sorry for replying to such an old message. Hopefully this is still monitored. I do think it would be useful for HAProxy to have configuration options to print logs directly to stdout/stderr. With container technologies like Docker, it is nice to keep to the one process per container rule and not have to run rsyslog alongside HAProxy just to ship logs out to stdout/stderr. This also fits in nicely with the strategy outlined in http://12factor.net/logs. Check out https://github.com/dockerfile/haproxy/issues/3. I think having an easy way to configure haproxy output logs directly to stdout and stderr would be much appreciated by anyone trying to fit haproxy into thier stacks running on containers. Best Regards, Doug
