I’m really happy to start using Appdaemon for automation. Now I’m starting to have a couple of apps running and and would like to separate the logs from groups of apps to simplify for myself.
I started with adding user defined log named avfuktare_log in appdaemon.yaml (I removed the beginning of the file):
logs:
error_log:
filename: /config/appdaemon/logs/error.log
main_log:
filename: /config/appdaemon/logs/appdaemon.log
access_log:
filename: /config/appdaemon/logs/access.log
diag_log:
filename: /config/appdaemon/logs/diag.log
avfuktare_log:
filename: /config/appdaemon/logs/avfuktare.log
After restart of Appdaemon in HA I get cyclic restarts of Appdaemon and the log shows a couple of things:
s6-rc: info: service s6rc-oneshot-runner: starting
s6-rc: info: service s6rc-oneshot-runner successfully started
s6-rc: info: service fix-attrs: starting
s6-rc: info: service fix-attrs successfully started
s6-rc: info: service legacy-cont-init: starting
cont-init: info: running /etc/cont-init.d/00-banner.sh

There is obviously an error with the name of the logger. I have done what I thought should done according to the logging documentation for Appdaemon.
I also see that mysql.connector is downloaded every time Appdaemon is restarted. Is this normal?
Main problem is the user defined logging. What is I doing wrong?
Edit: If I remove the last two rows in appdaemon.yaml there is no crash any longer so I’m pretty sure something is wrong with those rows.
Edit 2: I realized that it was me who added the need for mysql.connector in a test app. I still have the crash of Appdaemon due to adding a user defined log file.
