Sorry I can't remember how I can redirect the stdout and stderr together into a file. I can

Should do it.
Redirections are processed in the order they appear on the command line. So "2>&1 >logfile" redirects stderr to the same as current stdout (normally the terminal) and then redirects stdout to logfile. You need to swap the two redirections to send both streams to logfile.
