I copied your two scripts into "appel_main.py" and "appel_log.py" and when I run, I get a single line in main_log.txt: 2007-01-09 10:01:42,766 - INFO -C:\temp\appel_main.py___?something On the console is printed: time.asctime() Tue Jan 09 10:04:25 2007 received level= info message= C:\temp\appel_main.py___?something logger info _________ C:\temp\appel_main.py___?something I didn't see any repetitions. Perhaps it's to do with multiple processes in your environment? If you call write_log several times you will add a handler several times - this is not a normal pattern of use. You should separate setup of Loggers/Handlers/Formatters from actually logging events via debug(), info() etc. Best regards, Vinay Sajip -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
