simple log question
list Robert P. McGraw
I changed BBSERVERLOGS="/var/log/hobbit to BBSERVERLOGS="/local/hobbit/server/logs" and most of the logs are now being written to the new directory except for hobbitlaunch.log and hobbitlaunch.pid. They are still being written in /var/log/hobbit. Is there another variable that I need to change or is this compiled into the code? Thanks Robert Robert P.

It's a chicken-and-egg thing. But hobbitlaunch has --log=FILENAME and --pidfile=FILENAME that you can use to control where these files go. The built-in location - /var/log/hobbit - is merely the default. Henrik
