Hi everyone, I wrote a logging server that receives messages from logging.handlers.SocketHandler objects in client Python programs. This works well so long as the client programs are start/stop affairs. However, if the client is also a long running daemon a problem shows up. If the logging server is restarted log messages from the daemon client go no where, and no errors are thrown. To correct the problem the daemon client has to be restarted, then it will reconnect with the logging server and all is well. My reading of the logging.handlers.SocketHandler documentation makes me think this isn't how things are supposed to work. Failures of the emit() method (how log messages are sent) will close the connection and retry it again at the next log message.
By the way, we're running this with Python 2.4 on a CentOS Linux server. Does anyone have any ideas, pointers or suggestions about how to address this problem? Thanks in advance! Doug -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
