Im trying to figure out how to setup FreeBSD 5.3 to log
php events to its own log file via syslog.
In /etc/syslog.conf, I added ->
# php logs
!httpd
*.*                                             /var/log/php.log

I created a empty file for the log ->
gladiator# touch /var/log/php.log
gladiator# ls -l /var/log/php*
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  0 Jan 20 16:37 /var/log/php.log

Then I HUPped syslogd ->
gladiator# ps aux | grep syslogd
root     277  0.0  0.2  1316  908  ??  Is    4:14PM   0:00.01
/usr/sbin/syslogd -s
gladiator# kill -HUP 277

In my php script, Im using ->
define_syslog_variables();
openlog('TESTING', LOG_NDELAY, LOG_USER);
syslog(LOG_INFO, $message);
closelog();

But nothing is being logged to the file.
Am I doing something wrong on the FreeBSD side of things??

Thanks



PHP as an Apache module? IANAE, but wouldn't
you have to change log settings in httpd.conf?

I dont think so. These errors, that I want to log, are initiated by
the php function syslog() (look at the example above).
These messages are supposed to go to the syslogd daemon, not to httpd's log file.
In the example above, if I change the priority from "LOG_INFO" to "LOG_WARNING",
the error messages go to /var/log/messages.
I just need it to start going to its own file.
The ultimate goal, is that I want to have a cluster of webservers,
logging to a central server.


Thanks
