I think this is a FreeBSD problem.
Here is what I have.
1. I removed my initial modification of /etc/syslog.conf, and added ->
user.=info /var/log/php.log
According to syslog.conf man page, that should mean, any syslog events that
come is as LOG_USER, and only LOG_INFO, should be appended to
/var/log/php.log
2. I HUPped syslogd.
3. Im using logger to try to add a message to the log file like ->
gladiator# logger -s -p user.info test
gsam: test
But unfortunately, the message "test" doesn't appear in /var/log/php.log OR
/var/log/messages.
I currently have the file /var/log/php.log chmodded to 777.
Im including my syslog.conf file.
Can anyone tell me, as to why, Im unable to log these tests?
Thanks
