logs to file

Hello,

I am running Tvheadend in a Debian server.

I want to get all logs in a dedicated log file, now I use to collect this way:

tail -f /var/log/syslog | grep tvheadend

Is it possible to get all logs in a file like "/var/log/tvheadened.log"?

Kind regards.

Run tvheadend with

-l /var/log/tvheadened.log

(if you run tvheadend as a service, edit /etc/init.d/tvheadend)

Hello,

I run as a service in Debian with official repository package. I edited "/etc/default/tvheadend" with this values:

From:

# TVH_DEBUG
#   if set to 1 will output debug to syslog
TVH_DEBUG=1

# TVH_ARGS
#   add any other arguments
TVH_ARGS=""

# TVH_DEBUG
#   if set to 1 will output debug to syslog
TVH_DEBUG=0

# TVH_ARGS
#   add any other arguments
TVH_ARGS="-l /var/log/tvheadend.log"

Then restart the service, but there is not create the "/var/log/tvheadend.log" file.

I am missing something?

Thanks for your help.

Kind regards.

If running as user "hts", then Tvheadend will not have permission to create the log file in /var/log.

You can try first as root:

touch /var/log/tvheadend.log
chmod 666 /var/log/tvheadend.log

Then Tvheadend will be able to write to it.

Or, put the log file someplace user "hts" will always have permission, like /home/hts.

Thanks!

It works.

Kind regards.

thanks for this. my iptv automatic networks works flawless now. running rp2 rasbien stretch with latest stable tvh version.

No stalling, buffering or other problems after the remapping..
