syslog — システムログのメッセージを生成する
syslog() はシステムログが出力するログメッセージを生成します。
ユーザー定義のログハンドラの設定に関する情報については、Unix マニュアルの syslog.conf (5) を参照ください。 syslog の facility と option に関するより詳細な情報は、 Unix マシンの syslog (3) にあります。
priority
以下の定数のうち、ひとつを指定します。
LOG_EMERG , LOG_ALERT , LOG_CRIT , LOG_ERR , LOG_WARNING , LOG_NOTICE , LOG_INFO , LOG_DEBUG
message送信するメッセージ
常に true を返します。
例1 syslog() の使用例
<?php
// syslogをオープンし、プロセスIDをインクルードし、標準エラー出力にも
// ログを出力します。そして、ユーザー定義のログ記録機構を使用します。
openlog("myScriptLog", LOG_PID | LOG_PERROR, LOG_LOCAL0);
// 何らかのコード
if (authorized_client()) {
// 何かをする
} else {
// クライアントは未認証!
// ログを記録する
$access = date("Y/m/d H:i:s");
syslog(LOG_WARNING, "Unauthorized client: $access{$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']} ({$_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']})");
}
closelog();
?>Windows では、syslog サービスはイベントログを使用してエミュレートされます。
注意:
Windows 環境では、openlog() の
facilityパラメータにLOG_LOCAL0からLOG_LOCAL7までを使用することはできません。
If anyone is wondering why their log messages are appearing in multiple log files, here is one answer applying to *nix systems:
If your syslog.conf looks like this (assuming you use LOG_LOCAL0 for web app logging) :
local0.info /var/log/web/info.log
This will collect *all* messages of LOG_INFO level and higher, i.e everything except debug messages
Try this instead to ensure that only messages of the named log level go into the relevant log file:
local0.=info /var/log/web/info.log
Additionally, you may like to add this to ensure your messages don't end up in generic log files like "messages" "all" "syslog" and "debug":
local0.none /var/log/messages
local0.none /var/log/debug
etc
saves disk space among other things - more at "man syslog.conf"This function sends messages in BSD Syslog RFC 3164 format (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3164).
To see the raw messages being sent by PHP to the logging socket, first stop your syslog/rsylsog/ng-syslog service, then listen to the logging socket with the netcat-openbsd package:
nc -U -l /dev/log
Now, log something from PHP:
<?php
syslog(LOG_LOCAL1|LOG_INFO, "Test from PHP");
?>
You will see the rfc3164 output from netcat:
<142>Oct 24 14:32:51 php: Test from PHPSyslog autodetects newline control characters and therefore splits the message by multiple lines. To prevent this behavior in PHP 7.3+ you can use undocumented (at this moment) ini setting:
<?php
ini_set('syslog.filter', 'raw');
# more info here: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77913 A word of warning; if you use openlog() to ready syslog() and your Apache threads accept multiple requests, you *must* call closelog() if Apache's error log is configured to write to syslog. Failure to do so will cause Apache's error log to write to whatever facility/ident was used in openlog.
Example, in httpd.conf you have:
ErrorLog syslog:local7
and in php you do:
<?php
openlog("myprogram", 0, LOG_LOCAL0);
syslog("My syslog message");
?>
From here on out, this Apache thread will write ErrorLog to local0 and under the process name "myprogram" and not httpd! Calling closelog() will fix this.This one had me going for a while when using LOG_ constants in another object, when developing on Windows, but deploying on Linux.
Windows evaluates some of the LOG_ constants to the same value, while LINUX does not.
The 8 constants and their differences on the platforms to be aware of:
Linux has these values as:
========================
LOG_EMERG = 0
LOG_ALERT = 1
LOG_CRIT = 2
LOG_ERR = 3
LOG_WARNING = 4
LOG_NOTICE = 5
LOG_INFO = 6
LOG_DEBUG = 7
While on Windows, you have:
==========================
LOG_EMERG = 1
LOG_ALERT = 1
LOG_CRIT = 1
LOG_ERR = 4
LOG_WARNING = 5
LOG_NOTICE = 6
LOG_INFO = 6
LOG_DEBUG = 6
So if you're setting LOG_WARNING in your code, Linux will use 4 as the priority while Windows will use 5.
This is not a bug in PHP on either platform, but a difference in the system header files that PHP compiles with. Not really anything you can do, but be aware if you're wondering why your messages log at different priorities depending on the platform, this could be why.For those who want to simultaneously write to multiple syslog facilities :
syslog(LOG_INFO|LOG_LOCAL0, "message for local0");
syslog(LOG_INFO|LOG_LOCAL1, "message for local1");If you are using syslog-ng and want errors send to syslog then use ini setting "error_log = syslog" and add something like the following to your syslog-ng.conf:
destination php { file("/var/log/php.log" owner(root) group(devel) perm(0620)); };
log { source(src); filter(f_php); destination(php); };
