New submission from James Kesser: I believe I have come across a bug with RotatingFileHandler in logging/handlers.py
The attached script shows that when you are logging using RotatingFileHandler pointed at the same file from multiple logger instances, it works at first showing logging events from each. However, after the first rotation occurs, the events seem to be "group" together and do not get logged in order. Instead they are logged in groups according to which instance is performing the logging. NOTE: While searching for a bug report of this issue I was flooded with issues relating to multiple processes. This is not the case here. I have attached a script and the log files that are generated when running this as a single process / thread. first log file contains: a aaa... b bbb... a aaa... b bbb... a aaa... b bbb... a aaa... b bbb... a aaa... subsequent log files contain events all from either a or b only, not intertwined like you would expect. I first noticed this using v2.4.3 of the logging library, however I was able to reproduce this on 2.7 and 3.3 as well. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: rotating_file_handler_test.tar messages: 184061 nosy: James.Kesser priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: RotatingFileHandler issue when using multiple loggers instances (but one process/thread) to the same file versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file29393/rotating_file_handler_test.tar _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17407> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
