Dear All,
How top redirect errors of a command to a file
There are three useful things to do:
1 - redirect only stderr (fd 2)
command 2>file.err
2 - redirect stdout and stderr to a file
command &>file.log
3 - use the script command to capture ALL output
(generally better than option 2)
script file.log
# you are now in a sub-shell
{run your command}
exit
# here you are back to the login shell
See the man page for the script command, you can append to a log as well, and
you get start and stop times in the log, useful when you read it a week later. ;-)
