Hi,
It’s nice to see all the logs [initLicode.sh](http://initLicode.sh) write (erizo?), but it would be
nice if it would go into a log file.
While I could do that easily for [initBasicExample.sh](http://initBasicExample.sh) by using:
./licode/initBasicExample.sh \>\> licode/basicexample\_log
I couldn’t do the same with [initLicode.sh](http://initLicode.sh) because that is calling other
services, so I would need to go down to each and add this. Is there a
built-in way in Licode already to get all the logs to some log files?
Thanks

Thanks, but I have no problem keeping the logging up after closing the
console even with
./licode/scripts/initLicode.sh \>\> ./licode/initLicode.log 2\>&1

Thanks, that is perfect.
I will use the below (\>\> so it doesn’t overwrites the previous log after a
restart):

Consider also
nohup ./licode/scripts/initLicode.sh &
This will make able to close the parent process (the console for example)
still having Licode running in background and all its logs will be dumped
into nohup.out file created in the same directory.On Thursday, July 31, 2014 9:46:02 PM UTC+2, [evk0...@gmail.com](mailto:evk0...@gmail.com) wrote:

I use:
./licode/scripts/initLicode.sh \> initLicode.log 2\>&1
./licode/scripts/initBasicExample.sh \> initBasicExample.log 2\>&1
I think I get all logs in both files.
