I don't see the last two at all (maybe those aren't actually created on production?) but the others are all sent to log directories per configs defined in lp-production-configs. We'd like that part to stay that way, but have no objection to moving the thread*.request files as well. > Anyone care to comment? > > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
