Ah, i see. Can you temporarily shutdown() the logger and then restart it when the uninstall is complete? Or does it need to stay running also? I think it is possible to close a specific handler as well - but i dont know how the logging works in web2py - maybe there is a single handler for all the apps (if you can't tell, i have never used it before :)
