Mythlogserver
From MythTV Official Wiki
Revision as of 00:32, 7 September 2012 by Llib (talk | contribs) (Add rsyslog reference and some additional detail.)
mythlogserver is a program added in the 0.26 release.
Log messages generated by MythTV programs are sent to
mythlogserver which distributes them based on
the --syslog, --nodblog and --logpath command line options.
It is started automatically when existing MythTV programs start,
typically mythbackend and mythfrontend.
mythlogserver's logging options are inherited from the
program that starts it.
See 0.26 specific sections in Logrotate All Applications and Simple rsyslog Configuration if they are used.
mythlogserver uses ZeroMQ libraries, which
are included with the MythTV distribution.
