I'd like to have Asterisk log useful messages during operation.
Is there any way in extensions.conf that I can manually log messages to a file,
say via syslog()? The console output is ugly, with all the extra "Executing
NoOp("SIP/pstn.voip.com-08a28bd0"," crud at the front of each
line. I'm not sure how to save console output anyway.
Thanks,
Doug.
I don't find the console output ugly, maybe messy, but never ugly :P
If u don't like those NoOp, just take them away from ur extensions.conf.
BTW, to save the console output to a given file, just edit your logger.conf
file.
Say you only want the console output, then just add to your filename the
verbose option . The file will be saved wherever is defined in the asterisk.conf
(the
default is /var/log/asterisk) after editing the file you'll need to do
either an Asterisk restart or input CLI> logger rotate at the Asterisk
console.
i.e.
;logger.conf
[logfiles]
mylogfile => verbose

Well, I want the output that the NoOp's generate. I want to be able to
manually log lines to a file through some mechanism. I just wish I could do it
without all the extra NoOp stuff at the front.
I just tried using:
mylogfile => verbose
in logger.conf but all I got was the startup/shutdown asterisk messages.
Besides, this isn't what I wan't. I don't want Asterisk internal
generated log messages. I want my OWN log messages, that I specify.

I know plenty about scripting. Pick your interpreted language.... However, if the functionality already existed in Asterisk, a script wouldn't be necessary. I'm not at the point yet where I want to start developing scripts for this. -----Original Message----- From: Alyed Tzompa [mailto:alyed.tzompa@simitel.com] Sent: Thursday, January 05, 2006 12:38 PM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Debugging I do agree, plus even if you don't know anything about scripting there are plenty of shell tutorials out there Alyed _____ No but shell scripts are pretty easy and will cleanup your file for you.

I'm not sure how to save console output anyway.A direct answer to your question would be (yuck): System(logger "your custom message") rather than NoOp-s . RTFM logger for slightly more options. Naturally you can 'echo "whatever" >>logfile' instead. -- Tzafrir Cohen | tzafrir@jbr.cohens.org.il | VIM is http://tzafrir.org.il | | a Mutt's tzafrir@cohens.org.il | | best ICQ# 16849755 | | friend
