Is there a reason logging is forced to stderr in entrypoint.sh

[workdvdh]

Hi I'm trying to configure logging to a mounted volume but the daemon is run with -g which forces logging to stderr is it possible to override this?

Thanks.

I would like to do this as well. How do we go about allowing custom logging to files as well as keep normal logs to stderr. For example, trying to get query logs working..

logging{                                                  
  channel query_log {                                     
    file "/var/lib/bind/autorecon.log" versions 3 size 5m;
    severity debug;                                       
    print-time yes;                                       
    print-severity yes;                                   
    print-category yes;                                   
  };                                                      
  category queries{                                       
    query_log;                                            
  };                                                      
};

I think got round this by modifying the file /sbin/entrypoint.sh in the container, changed the line

exec $(which named) -u ${BIND_USER} -g ${EXTRA_ARGS}

to

exec $(which named) -u ${BIND_USER} -f ${EXTRA_ARGS}

i.e. change -g to -f

@workdvdh I changed mine to this as well right after I made the comment. This seems to work and I have added "Default" logging and "Query" logs to a file. I would like to send the Default logs to stdout but can't seem to get that working now. I have tried:

ln -sf /dev/stdout /var/lib/bind/default.log

but get a "invalid file" error.
