is it possible to output the log of apache to tty2 or any terminal

i am using apache 2.0.55
on ubuntu 6.10

Maybe I can start to answer your question, though this may only be a part of the whole solution.
The code I pasted here is from my /etc/syslog.conf file. It's purpose is to send ALL system messages on my machine to /tty12 and send all KERNEL messages to /tty10.
Working on the (possibly incorrect) assumption that Apache (log) output can also be trapped by the system log daemon, you could use a line similar to the above, but with *.apache /dev/tty2 or apache.* /dev/tty2
Hopefully it's as easy as that. If there's more to it, I would think it'd be a configuration issue in/with the Apache httpd.conf file.
Best of luck

thanks - i think that should do it - because the apache conf has the option to pass the log onto the system logs - which i presume is the system log deamon. in which case what you have suggested should work - so im gonna try that now - thankyou.

having tried a few things previously in the apache configuration . eg putting tty2 in where the path of the log file was i realised that i had not been putting /dev/ in front of them and that in the conf file i could just literally put /dev/tty2 in the place of the log file.

thanks for your help because you put me onto that.

Hey very cool and I learn something I didn't know too, for future reference!
