But on kind of production site I'd rather use DEBUG=False and show visitors some standard error 500 page with information that I'm working on fixing this
Django Exception Middleware
bug at this moment ;) At the same time I'd like to have some way of logging all those information (stack trace and request info) to a file on my server - so I can just output it to my console and watch errors scroll, email the log to me every hour or something like this. What logging solutions would you recomend for a django-site, that would meet those simple requirements? I have the application running as fcgi server and I'm using apache web server as frontend (although thinking of going to lighttpd). python django error-logging share|improve this question asked Oct 26 '08 at 14:37 kender 34.9k2083126 something from battle ground: dlo.me/what-to-do-when-your-site-goes-viral –Cherian May 9 '11 at 3:31 1 Sentry to view logs:readthedocs.org/docs/sentry/en/latest/index.html –Cherian May 9 '11 at 3:31 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 74 down vote accepted Well, when DEBUG = False, Django will automatically mail a full traceback of any error to each person listed in the ADMINS setting, which gets you notifications pretty much for free. If you'd like more fine-grained control, you can write and add to your settings a middleware class which defin

What would cause Django http://stackoverflow.com/questions/238081/how-do-you-log-server-errors-on-django-sites to run without error when I do python manage.py runserver but then throw Internal Server Error when I try to access it through the web? I have another project giving the Congratulations on your first Django-powered page, and I got the same result with the same .wsgi file initially with this project. It wasn't until I tried to install this script in massivecoupon project that I got Internal Server Error: http://github.com/coulix/Massive-Coupon---Open-source-groupon-clone UPDATE: I http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3295343/django-internal-server-error set Debug to True in settings.py and now I am getting the django error: ViewDoesNotExist at / Could not import massivecoupon.engine.views.

Whatever user apache runs as for your website needs to have that set up for it, like in its .profile. Or if you're using mod_python, they need to be set up in the .htaccess or apache's httpd.conf. Or if you're using mod_wsgi, it needs to be in the wsgi setup file -- passenger_wsgi.py or the like -- whatever apache's module will be looking for. Next: check if the files it needs to access are accessible by what apache runs your django site as make sur

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up Django 1.3 logging: 500 errors are not logged up vote 10 down vote favorite I'm struggling to make the 'django.request' logger work as advertised - 500 errors don't seem to propagate to handlers attached to it. In the default logging configuration for every new project, the comment says the internal server error "logging performed by this configuration is to send an email to the site admins on every HTTP 500 error". Obviously the email is only sent if you've setup ADMINS correctly, but I'm not even seeing the handler get called when a view raises an exception. I built a testcase starting with an empty project, and adding my own handler to the 'django.request' logger: LOGGING = { 'version': 1, 'disable_existing_loggers': False, 'handlers': { 'mail_admins': { 'level': 'ERROR', 'class': 'django.utils.log.AdminEmailHandler' }, 'my_error_handler' : { 'level': 'ERROR', 'class': 'log.MyErrorHandler' } }, 'loggers': { 'django.request': { 'handlers': ['mail_admins', 'my_error_handler'], 'level': 'ERROR', 'propagate': True, }, } } The handler itself: import logging class MyErrorHandler(logging.Handler): def emit(self, record): print "handling error: %s" % record If I call .error() on the logger myself, everything works as it should. But when a 500 is generated by a view, neither of the handlers are called. My views.py: import logging def home(request): #this error will be processed by MyErrorHandler logging.getLogger('django.request').error("Custom error message") #this won't raise Exception('500 error message') return HttpResponse("Home") Everything else is
are addressed in this guide, some problems may require additional investigation to resolve. Here are some common strategies for resolving problems with Django applications. Reviewing Django Logs in Real Time¶ You can review the logs of a Django application as they are recorded using tail with the log file. To review the logs in real time: Open an SSH session to your account. Switch to the user logs directory. Enter cd $HOME/logs/user and press Enter. Enter tail -f error_django_app.log, where django_app is the name of the Django application as it appears in the control panel and press Enter. New additions to the error log will automatically appear on screen. You can now access the site and see any log entries as they appear. See also Accessing Logs Using the DEBUG Setting¶ Django has a built-in debug mode, provided by the DEBUG setting in your Django project's settings module. When DEBUG is enabled and an exception is raised, a detailed debugging output (including a stack trace) is rendered instead of attempting to render the 500 template. See also Django Documentation > Settings > DEBUG Warning Do not leave DEBUG set to True during normal operation. In addition to showing users unnecessary and potentially compromising configuration details in error pages, the DEBUG setting also causes Django to consume significantly more memory, which may exceed plan allotments. To enable the Django DEBUG setting: Open an SSH session. Open settings.py for the Django application. Typically, this file is found in $HOME/webapps/django_app/project/project. If it already exists, edit the line containing DEBUG = False to DEBUG = True. Otherwise, add a new line containing DEBUG = True to the file. Restart the Django application. Now, when an error occurs, a stack trace, settings information, and other valuable data is provided instead of rendering an error page. To force the appearance of the Django debugging page, add an assert False to a view and attempt to access it. Using the Django Debug Toolbar¶ The Django Debug Toolbar is a pluggable Django app that adds debugging information (such as
