The above is a shortcut for
root = logging.getLogger("")
root.debug("debug check")
i. e. you are logging to the root logger. According to your config file
messages sent to the root logger are only handled by the console handler:
> [logger_root]
> level=NOTSET
> handlers=console
You can either change that by adding the file handler to the list of
handlers for the root logger
handlers=console,file
in the config file or by directing your logging messages to "mylogger" with
mylogger = logging.getLogger("mylogger")
mylogger.debug("debug check")
Note that loggers are organized in a tree; messages sent to mylogger will be
propagated upwords to the root logger by default.
