Hi, I'm trying to pipe my Apache 2.0.54 logs to a script, but never seem to get any logs sent through the pipe. Apache starts my script (actually a python program) which runs fine until it tries to read a log from stdin. At that point the script hangs and never gets any input. My script works correctly for other sources, ie: "cat access.log | script.py" works correctly. Also, I tried just piping apache logs to cat, ie: CustomLog "|/bin/cat >> /var/log/apache2/test.log" common I get this is my error.log: piped log program ' /bin/cat >> /var/log/apache2/test.log' failed unexpectedly /bin/cat: >>: No such file or directory
The piped log program must be an executable command with possible arguments, not something that you would pass to the shell. So if you made a shell script containing #!/bin/sh /bin/cat >> /bar/log/apache2/test.log and then used the shell script as the target, you would have more luck. Have you tried the python equivalent of a trivial program that simply pipes the log entries to a file? What does it look like?
