Hi    I would like to know how I can customize logger message format in rails 2.3.5

Thanks in advance Tom

You can overload call method from Formatter.

example:

class Logger    class Formatter      Format = "%s [%s] %s %sn"      def call(severity, time, progname, msg)   Format % [severity, format_datetime(time), progname, msg]      end    end end

$LOG.error('This is much shorter.') # ERROR [2006-03-31T19:35:01.058646 ] This is much shorter.

I am not sure exactly what you are asking, but the rails guide on Testing at http://guides.rubyonrails.org/ has some information on how to use the logger.

       Thanks for your reply. Where should I place this code? In environment.rb or any initializer?

Thanks Tom
