Hey There,
I looked at the ob_start manual and found a segment of code that can be used
to capture the output of a shell script and place it into a log file. One
of the entries indicates this should work for both STDOUT and STDERR
(29-Mar-2007). I wrote the following piece of code to test it out.
function logger($buffer)
{
$handle = fopen('/var/log/test.log', 'a');
fwrite($handle, $buffer);
fclose($handle);
}
ob_start("logger");
This will capture the output buffer until the shell terminates when the
buffer is dumped to the test.log file. This is a simple mechanism and it
works really well to keep STDOUT from going to the console and logging it.
Unfortunately, STDERR continues to go to the console which is what I am
working to avoid.
I would like to capture STDOUT and STDERR using this technique. I am working
to create a self contained script that does not rely on some external script
to capture the output. The actual application needs to perform some
post-processing of the output buffer at the end of the script.
Any pointers in the correct direction would be helpful! Thanks, Greg
