So if you made a shell script containing #!/bin/sh /bin/cat >> /var/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? Joshua.
Good point on why straight out "cat" didn't work, but I just tried using your mini cat script and that doesn't write anything to the log either. Thinking maybe python was causing me trouble, I also tried this perl script: (copied from http://www.sudleyplace.com/pipederrorlogs.html) ------------- #!/usr/bin/perl $|=1; # Use unbuffered output print while <STDIN>; ------------- I don't get any output from that either. Note that having apache write the logs directly works fine, it is only a problem when I try to use a pipe.
