Well that probably means that this is a configurator issue.
You know what... try configuring using a properties file. Create
log4php.properties (or whatever) and put this in:
log4php.appender.default = LoggerAppenderFile
log4php.appender.default.file = myLog.log
log4php.rootLogger = DEBUG, default
Then configure using
Logger::configure('log4php.properties ');
This uses a different configurator and it might not have the same bug.
I may install gentoo to try and figure this out if I have the time.
Too bad PHP is not included on their live CD. Do you know any good
quickstart tutorials? :-)
Regards,
Ivan
