Hello tutors, I have become familiar with the basic use of the logging module. I have a program that prints out warning messages as well as info messages as it runs, merely dumping them into stdout. When I make such a script into a cron job, I simply redirect this output to /dev/null.
Now, what I would like to do is instead send this output to one or more of the standard linux log files. First though, I am wondering, what is the standard procedure in a case like this? Is it more appropriate to make a totally separate log file for all user-added scripts (or one a piece), and put them in /var/log or elsewhere? Where have you all found to be helpful places to log messages from automated scripts on Linux systems? The end goal is simply to have a place that I can check to see that the script is running as expected, or troubleshoot issues if need arise. Thanks for any help or tips, Sam _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
