Hello all.

I have an apache 2 webserver running on RHEL4. I'd like to log to both my syslog server AND the local error log. My results though have been mixed and I'm wondering if anyone else has this problem or has worked around it.

When I use the following directives in the following order, the syslog server receives error log entries just fine, but the local file isn't written to.

When I switch them around, it works, but not fully. Error and Notice level entries go to the local file, while Warn level entries go to the syslog server.

Can anyone shed some light on why the output seems to be split between the destinations instead of being sent to both?

Thanks,

Dan

That's because Apache takes the last definition for a given param. You can log locally & remotely using the link in my post #5 here http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ghlight=syslog

Thanks Chrism for the reply. I realized after seeing your post that I was trying to do things in the wrong order. Instead of relying on apache to write to multiple locations, I needed to log everything to syslog and let the syslog daemon do the work of sending the traffic to multiple locations.

Thanks again...
