How are you viewing the log file? I suspect you are using less, and that the file contains some control characters, and less is automatically showing you a hex dump. Try using `less -A`. The above lines when coverted from hex are: 2013-10-16 10:11:45-0700 [-] DevCmd(STATUS) 2013-10-16 10:11:45-0700 [-] DevCmd(STATUS) 2013-10 which looks like part of a log file.
