This is not a bug in python2.4, it's a bug in the code you have provided. I will reject the bug. You may open it again, if you feel that you aren't done with it.
import logging, logging.handlers logger = logging.getLogger('') logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG) handler = logging.handlers.SysLogHandler('/dev/log') # NOTE THIS! logger.addHandler(handler) logger.info('Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz.') SysLogHandler() will send the logging to a unixsocket. It isn't intended to output text on the console. If you pass "/dev/log" as the object's argument, it will append it to /var/log/messages. SysLogHandler() without any argument will make it try to open localhost on udp. ** Changed in: python2.4 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Python logging module doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/122986 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
