New submission from vladmihaisima <vladmihais...@gmail.com>:
When invoking logging.config.dictConfig - if a logger was previously disabled (for example by a call to "logging.config.dictConfig({'version': 1})") - the loggers specified in the dictionary will not be enabled. Documentation at https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.config.html specifies for disable_existing_loggers that "... behaviour is to disable any existing non-root loggers unless they or their ancestors are explicitly named in the logging configuration.". There is no explicit mention for what happens when a logger exists and is already disabled. I would have assumed that if present it will be enabled, but that does not seem to be the case. So I think that if a logger is disabled invoking dictConfig cannot re-enable it. See attached code for a reproducible case. ---------- files: bug.py messages: 408216 nosy: vladmihaisima priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: logging.config.dictConfig with disable_existing_loggers set, also disables loggers in configuration versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file50486/bug.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46037> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
