Output and Logging

------------------

:program:`drizzled` does *not* close or redirect output to ``STDOUT`` or

``STDERR`` to a log file or logging facility like :program:`syslog`.

You should redirect ``STDOUT`` and ``STDERR`` to a log file as in the above

script example for starting Drizzle manually.

When starting Drizzle, you should redirect ``STDOUT`` and ``STDERR`` to a log

file or to /dev/null, as in the above script example when starting Drizzle.

When running :program:`drizzled` manually from a console, just allowing the

output to be printed for you can of course be useful.

Note that beginning with the first ``Drizzle 7.1 Beta 2011.10.28`` drizzled

will also log messages via syslog and this is *in addition* to using ``STDOUT``

and ``STDERR``.
