Syslog appender bug?
Hi,
I'm getting the following error when trying to use the syslog appender:
PHP Warning: openlog() expects parameter 3 to be long, string given in
/home/ctoomey/hg/CouponsCom/
webapp/zend/library/log4php/appenders/LoggerAppenderSyslog.php on line 190
It's passing the string I specified in the log4php.ini -- "LOCAL7" instead
of the corresponding int constant value. So looks like this appender can't
possibly work when configuring from .ini or .xml files, or otherwise unless
you directly call setFacility() with a proper constant value. Is anybody
using this appender and if so, how are you getting around this?
Also, do any of you know how to configure PHP to send STDERR messages to the
Apache error log? When I use the Console appender with either STDERR or
STDOUT, my messages don't go into the apache error log and don't appear to
be logged anywhere. On the other hand, msgs. I write with PHP's error_log()
do go to the error log. Is anybody using the Console appender to
successfully write to apache's error log?
thx,
Chris

Hi Chris,
I can confirm that this is a bug. The facility cannot be configured using
the strings as specified in the documentation. I will open an issue and we
will fix this.
In the meantime, you can use the integer values of the PHP constants used
for syslog facility, as listed here:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/network.constants.php
For example, if you want to use the LOCAL7 facility, you need to use the
integer value of the LOG_LOCAL7 constant which is 184. Therefore, something
like:
log4php.appender.default = LoggerAppenderSyslog
log4php.appender.default.facility = 184
I will have to get back to you concerning the other issue, I'm off kayaking
today. :-)
Thanks for reporting the bug.
Best regards,
Ivan
