Logging Request: single error log

[ViolentCrimes]

Right now TCADMIN2 creates one sets of logs per starting date, separate console logs, separate logs for each daemon, spread out over several directories.

 

it makes it a pain to deal with this beta, since every time something breaks I have to scour through a buttload of files just to find if it logged an error. Is it possible to set up a single error log?

The single error log is console.log. It gets reset after every monitor or service manager restart.

 

Having everything in a single file would is confusing because you would not be able to tell if the error is coming from the monitor or from the service manager.

Seems a non-issue, given how daemon.log, user.log, dmesg or any other system log deals with it.

 

I guess I can combine it myself with some scripts.

Do you have a copy of a log file that you can post or send us that you mentioned above?

What do you mean? Like a copy from /var/log/daemon?

It solves the issue by listing service as a column. Right now I could just combine and sort logs with scripts after the fact, it's just a convenience to be able to make a live tail and grep.
