However, not all apps write "proper"/"required" logs for _admins_. Here comes customized save handler. Besides poorly written apps, apps log should use completely separated log system IMO. i.e. Apps should not raise any errors under normal operations and leave user error/exception handler to users(admins). The reason is to detect fatal code/security/subsystem failure as soon as possible and to take action for it. i.e. Since errors should not happen with normal circumstances, all uncatched error/exception is fatal that requires immediate action. It's not mandatory, but it's best practice IMHO. Regards, -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohg...@ohgaki.net
