Luup Development: Need to keep logs around longer...

During Luup development, Vera generates a lot of logs, and these are often “rotated” out to the FindVera servers, often in under 30 minutes with a small system.

This is fine, except these logs often contain information needed to debug situations in the Luup code under development, and require CJ or MCV to manually retrieve them.

This likely isn’t something the average end user will need, but anyone developing larger Luup projects will likely need to do it a few times.

I’ve had them do this a few times now during my development, so I figure it’s worth a formal request for a feature (for developers), either provide a way for:

[ul][li]Advanced End-Users to retrieve any Logs archived at FindVera.com OR;[/li]
[li]Vera to write the LuUPnP log, and others, to the Standard [tt]syslog [/tt]output of openwrt. This can then be wired to my local syslog server for later retrieval.[/li][/ul]

Seconded! Was going to ask for this yesterday.

Actually, I think “regular people” would (a) appreciate and (b) expect that this proposed behavior is implied by “Archive Logs on FindVera” (foolishly, I always thought that’s what it meant!).
