Hello list,
I noticed that when I set the CONFIG "MS_ERRORFILE" "/home/stefanos/mapdata/log_file.log" it is saved with ownership to www-data for both user and group. Well this seems to cause problem for Python mapscript (at least at my machine with Python version 2.7 - Python 3 is not able to import mapscript at all). I'm using Spyder as an environment and it gives me the following message

MapServerError: msSetErrorFile(): General error message. Failed to open MS_ERRORFILE /home/stefanos/mapdata/log_file.log

mapserv -v

MapServer version 7.0.1 OUTPUT=PNG OUTPUT=JPEG OUTPUT=KML SUPPORTS=PROJ SUPPORTS=AGG SUPPORTS=FREETYPE SUPPORTS=CAIRO SUPPORTS=ICONV SUPPORTS=XMP SUPPORTS=FRIBIDI SUPPORTS=WMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WMS_CLIENT SUPPORTS=WFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=WFS_CLIENT SUPPORTS=WCS_SERVER SUPPORTS=SOS_SERVER SUPPORTS=FASTCGI SUPPORTS=THREADS SUPPORTS=GEOS INPUT=JPEG INPUT=POSTGIS INPUT=OGR INPUT=GDAL INPUT=SHAPEFILE

Is there any way to solve this issue ?

Create the file before you use and make if group writable and group owned by www-data

sudo rm /home/stefanos/mapdata/log_file.log
touch /home/stefanos/mapdata/log_file.log
chmod 664 /home/stefanos/mapdata/log_file.log
sudo chgrp www-data /home/stefanos/mapdata/log_file.log
