48 - Logs and archive directories created in another directory?

Reported by zoobabzoobab (1235051849|%O ago)

During the compilation, is there a way to specify the directory where the program amq_server will write for its archive and logs directories, like /var/log/openamq/? I use the 1.4a2 version, and the config file needs to be specified by hand on the command line using the "amq_server —log_path /path/to/logs —archive_path /path/to/archives" option.

Suggested design

The following design should work nicely for both a "system" OpenAMQ (installed from a package) and an installation in a normal user account. It also has the advantage of not breaking existing functionality such as the ability to run multiple instances of OpenAMQ from a single user account.

  • Logging defaults to "/var/lib/openamq/…". If this path is writable at server startup time, use it for logging, but tell the user you are doing so:

I: Logging to '/var/log/openamq/…'

  • If not, print a suitable message and don't log anywhere, e.g.

W: Log directory '…' is not writable, logging to file disabled.
W: Please set the configuration variable 'whateveritis' to enable logging.

  • People who want the old behaviour can just set the log path to '.'

Also, we probably want to merge "log-path" and "archive-path" into a single setting.

Changed for 1.4b2:

- archive_path setting merged into log-path setting
- default for log-path setting is '/var/log/openamq'
- if log path is not writeable, openamq complains but runs anyhow
