#67955 closed enhancement
startupitem: enhancement: logfile should also log to stderr — at Version 3

Priority: | Normal | Milestone: | MacPorts 2.9.0 |

Description (last modified by mascguy (Christopher Nielsen))
startupitem.logfile
: This option only enables stdout logging, via StandardOutPath
. It should also log to stderr, via StandardErrorPath
.
AFAIK (?) - and based on local testing - it appears that it's OK to log both to the same file. But if anyone's aware of any cases where that can be problematic, please don't hesitate to speak up.

Replying to ryandesign:
Ability to set user/group for startupitems was added in MacPorts 2.7.0; see #13807.
Of note, this functionality is not documented in either the MacPorts guide, nor in the manpage for portfile
.
If it was at least documented in the latter, that would be forgivable. But it's completely undocumented?
