Whit helped me come up with a solution that *almost* works. supervisord now exclusively manages the app's log files. The problem, however, seems that supervisord is buffering its log output. For example, the app is chef, it runs every 10 minutes and its log reads:
[Fri, 19 Nov 2010 22:07:14 +0000] INFO: Starting Chef Run (Version 0.9.8) then 10 minutes later, this appears in the log: [Fri, 19 Nov 2010 22:07:18 +0000] INFO: Chef Run complete in 3.965152 seconds [Fri, 19 Nov 2010 22:07:18 +0000] INFO: Running report handlers [Fri, 19 Nov 2010 22:07:18 +0000] INFO: Report handlers complete [Fri, 19 Nov 2010 22:17:29 +0000] INFO: Starting Chef Run (Version 0.9.8) Notice that the first three lines above are really from the prior chef run. So strangely, only the first line is logged per chef run until the next app run which then seems to flush the buffer and log again only the first line of that next run. My config: [program:chef-client] command=/usr/bin/chef-client -i 600 -s 20 pidfile=/var/run/chef-client.pid redirect_stderr=true stdout_logfile=/var/log/chef-client.log stdout_logfile_maxbytes=1MB stdout_logfile_backups=5 See anything I'm doing wrong?
