Error logging

Rails
1

hi, just a quickie,

how do i write custom error messages to the log so i can debug a little
better.

similar to writing stuff to the Javascript console with
console.debug(‘222’); or alert(‘444’);

appreciate it?

ahh,

think i found out how,

RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER.info “foo bar”

right so far

but you need RAILS_DEFAULT_LOGGER only in tests
in normal model, controller or view code you can use

logger.info “foo bar”

4

logger.error “My Error”
logger.info “My FYI to the log”
logger.debug “My debug”

thanks,

well this is annoying, i can’t get it to post messages to the log, but
the code runs thru ok; argh!

logger.info “some message”
