Hi, having the following code:
import logging logging.basicConfig(level=logging.ERROR, format='%(levelname)-8s %(message)s', filename='mc_rigid.log', filemode='w') # define a Handler which writes INFO messages or higher to the sys.stderr console = logging.StreamHandler() console.setLevel(logging.INFO) # set a format which is simpler for console use formatter = logging.Formatter('%(message)s') # tell the handler to use this format console.setFormatter(formatter) # add the handler to the root logger logging.getLogger('').addHandler(console) I observe nothing printed on the console. However if I change the level (just after the import) from logging.ERROR to logging.DEBUG I do see all info lines on the console as intended. Can anybody tell my mistake? I thought changing the level in basicConfig would have no impact on the following StreamHandler instance. Also, adding %(funcName)-8s to the formatter in basigConfig does not work for me: instead of the functions name the level in lower case gets inserted into the logfile.
