Thanks Hynek and Christopher. Hynek- That's basically what I want -- but i am always quickly LOST when it comes to logging. It is my weakness.
Christopher-- The code is definitely contradicting me. I am admittedly lost. I'll have to play around with this more in depth later -- but now I have an temporarily acceptable solution. For the most part, I'm not logging anything myself. I'm really concerned with all the debug messages that various PyPi packages send to the standard library's logging facility. While running the twisted daemon outside of supervisord, this stuff ends up on the console( which i believe is both stdout/stderr ). When I wrote "not having supervisord handle the logging" , I should have chosen better words. It could have been stated as "I don't want /var/log/supervisord.log to handle the logging". I don't care who handles the logging, I just wanted debug data from my twisted app in it's own file, and not in another. I was trying to route the stderr into the /var/log/myapp-twisted/log ; but it was going into both that AND the /var/log/supervisord.log file I tried using different permutations of the `-l` format, but without a bit of configuring, I could only get the "log.debug()" lines in twisted code to output; not the submodules. After playing around, this seems to work the best: [supervisord] logfile=/var/log/supervisord.log loglevel=warn [myapp] redirect_stderr = true stdout_logfile = /var/log/myapp-twisted/twisted.log It's not a perfect solution, but works for now -- I just raised the loglevel for supervisord to `warn`, so it doesn't doubly log any data. The downside is that i'm not getting the debug messages from other apps that supervisord handles.
