No need to poke about in the source. Here's my script: #-- log_ufn.py -- import logging.config logging.config.fileConfig("log_ufn.ini") logging.error("Holy Cow, Batman!") and here's my configuration file, adapted from yours: #-- log_ufn.ini -- [formatters] keys: normal [handlers] keys: rotatingfile [loggers] keys: root [formatter_normal] format: %(asctime)s %(levelname)s %(module)s: %(message)s [logger_root] level: DEBUG handlers: rotatingfile [handler_rotatingfile] class: handlers.RotatingFileHandler formatter: normal args: (u"C:/Temp/\u00DF\u00E9\u00E4\u00F6\u00DC2/MyApp.log", "a", 2*1024*1024, 5, None) Note that I specified a Unicode filename, with Unicode escapes for ßéäöÜ2. After I run the script (using ActivePython 2.5.2.2), I get the following output: # -- Contents of C:\temp\ßéäöÜ2\MyApp.log -- 2009-06-18 17:07:30,493 ERROR log_ufn: Holy Cow, Batman! Which seems to be what one would expect. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
