    4 Trac supports logging of system messages using the standard ''logging'' module part of Python 2.3 and newer.
    5 
    6 '''Note:''' If you are using a Python version older than 2.3, the Trac logging mechanism will be silently disabled.
     4Trac supports logging of system messages using the standard [http://docs.python.org/lib/module-logging.html logging module] that comes with Python.
    75
    86Logging is configured in the {{{[logging]}}} section in [wiki:TracIni trac.ini].

    10 == Python 2.2 Workaround ==
    11 If you are using Python 2.2, however, note that the logging package from Python 2.3 works perfectly under 2.2 as well; you can just copy the entire {{{logging}}} directory from the Python 2.3 library into the Python 2.2 lib directory. Perhaps not the most elegant solution, but it works.
     8== Supported Logging Methods ==

    14 == Supported Logging Methods ==
    15  * '''none''' -- Suppress all log messages.
    16  * '''file''' -- Log messages to a file, specified with the ''log_file'' directive in [wiki:TracIni trac.ini].
    17  * '''stderr''' -- Output all log entries to console ([wiki:TracStandalone tracd] only).
    18  * '''syslog''' -- (UNIX) Send messages to local syslogd via named pipe '/dev/log'.
    19  * '''winlog''' -- (Windows) Use the system's NT eventlog for Trac logging.
     10The log method is set using the `log_type` configuration option, which takes any of the following values:
     11 '''none'':: Suppress all log messages.
     12 '''file''':: Log messages to a file, specified with the `log_file` option in [wiki:TracIni trac.ini].
     13 '''stderr''':: Output all log entries to console ([wiki:TracStandalone tracd] only).
     14 '''syslog''':: (UNIX) Send messages to local syslogd via named pipe `/dev/log`.
     15 '''eventlog''':: (Windows) Use the system's NT eventlog for Trac logging.

    2117== Log Levels ==
    22 The level of verbosity of logged messages can be set using the ''log_level'' directive in [wiki:TracIni trac.ini]. The log level defines the minimum level of urgency required for a message to be logged.

    2421The levels are:
    25  * ''CRITICAL'' -- Log only the most critical, typically fatal, messages.
    26  * ''ERROR'' -- Request failures, bugs and errors.
    27  * ''WARN'' -- Warnings, non-interrupting events.
    28  * ''INFO'' -- Diagnostic information, log information about all requests.
    29  * ''DEBUG'' -- Development messages, profiling, etc. Not fit for human consumption.
     22 '''CRITICAL''':: Log only the most critical (typically fatal) errors.
     23 '''ERROR''':: Log failures, bugs and errors.
     24 '''WARN''':: Log warnings, non-interrupting events.
     25 '''INFO''':: Diagnostic information, log information about all processing.
     26 '''DEBUG''':: Trace messages, profiling, etc.
