I have configured SysLogHandler for my django app but nothing is going into the log file

[Sumedh Sidhaye]

 Hi,

I have configured SysLogHandler as mentioned in this link.

I have put a absolute filename instead of '/dev/log' or '/var/log'

But it seems nothing is going into that file

Could you help me out!

Regards,
Sumedh

What does your SysLogHandler look like?

This is from my logging config file from a non-django project, but the principals should be similar.

Before you look too hard here, are you sure that rsyslog.d (or equivalent) is running on the box (at which you have targeted the logger?
Is the facility on which you are logging configured (In my case, local5, see args below, is not configured by default and requires stuff in /etc/rsyslog.d, including configuring the socket '/dev/octopus', see args below.
[handler_logfile]
class=handlers.SysLogHandler
level=WARN
formatter=f_logfile
args=('/dev/octopus',handlers.SysLogHandler.LOG_LOCAL5)
