Hi Peter, You can actually override the logging directly in universe_wsgi.ini. Create some new sections that look something like these: [loggers] keys=root,paste [handlers] keys=syslog [formatters] keys=default [logger_root] level=DEBUG handlers=syslog [logger_paste] qualname=paste.httpserver.ThreadPool level=WARN handlers=syslog [handler_syslog] class=logging.handlers.SysLogHandler level=NOTSET formatter=default args=(('syslog_server_ip',514),'syslog_facility') [formatter_default] format=%(name)s %(levelname)s %(asctime)s %(message)s --nate
