Dear mailing list, <br><br>I&#39;m using the logging module and write my log messages via the FileHandler. I just realized that using an external log rotation mechanism does not work. That is, new messages are not added to the file after  <br>
rotation. <br><br>In my opinion external log rotate mechanisms should work with the standard file handler. <br><br>websearch pointed me to TimedRotatingFileHandler . But this only seems like a workaround. For instance I would like to get my log file mailed once a week. But it seems difficult to sync the cron job doing this and the logging-rotation mechanism. <br>
<br>I think TimedRotatingFileHandler is important, e.g. for windows users. But for *nux users this seems to be unnecessary. <br><br>Just want to gather some opinions before filing a bug. <br><br>Regards, <br>Matthias<br><br>
