Re: [staf-users] Problems with LOG command syntax

[David B. <bd...@us...>]

You need to specify the "log" command when sending the request to the Log 
service:

$ staf local log MACHINE logname foolog level error message "Test log 
message"
Error submitting request, RC: 7
Additional info: MACHINE

$ staf local log log MACHINE logname foolog level error message "Test log 
messa
ge"
Response
--------

$ staf local log query MACHINE dave2268 logname foolog
Response
--------
20041220-21:01:06|dave2268|18|STAF/Client|Error|Test log message

This can sometimes be confusing, if the command you specify for a service 
request has the same name as the service itself ("staf local log log", 
"staf local shutdown shutdown", etc.).

[staf-users] Problems with LOG command syntax






Hi I'm just starting to evaluate STAF (I'm running the latest 2.6)
 
I have added logging as a service to my machine-
 
$ staf local service list
Response
--------
DELAY: Internal
DIAG: Internal
ECHO: Internal
FS: Internal
HANDLE: Internal
HELP: Internal
LOG: External library STAFLog
MISC: Internal
PING: Internal
PROCESS: Internal
QUEUE: Internal
SEM: Internal
SERVICE: Internal
SHUTDOWN: Internal
TRUST: Internal
VAR: Internal
But when I try to use it, I get an error:
$ staf local log MACHINE logname foolog level error message "Test log 
message"
Error submitting request, RC: 7
Additional info: MACHINE
 
I believe I am following the command manual properly, but clearly I'm 
doing something wrong. Do I need to do something special to create the 
logname?
