RE: Apache Error Log

[Jim Morrison [Mailinglists]]

Sorry.. Haven't read / Can't find the whole thread..  But...

Surely just:

        print STDERR "Hello World";


... I always just stick this in my code...

        ### DEBUGGER
        sub debug{
          my $message = shift;
          if ($debug){
            print STDERR "$message\n";
          }
        }

So my code is full of:

        debug("Here is something going on");


Which works a treat...  Then just "tail -f" the error log and watch it
all happening (breaking!)

($debug is a global var, used to simply switch the error loggin on and
off..)

Is this what you're after?

Kindest,

J

you can use warn() instead which writes to stderr and always
autoflushes.

or turn on autoflush of STDERR yourself, from perlfunc.pod:
$oldfh = select(STDERR); $| = 1; select($oldfh);

or update modperl-2.0 from cvs which turns on autoflush of STDERR by 
default.
