| I am sorry if I am doing something ignorant, but I am having trouble with autologging. I have autologging set, but it only logged my first session, and does not log any more. What I want is to have one file, where it appends every session I have to that text file. I have autologging set to abrealms.txt, and when I click on file it says log session, and it is checked. It does not log at all, however. I can give more information if needed, but if at all possible, could anyone tell me what I might be doing wrong? Thanks for any help. | Top |

| Do you define a session as opening the world and closing it, or connecting and disconnecting? |

| MUclient does what you want, I don't understand why it won't work for you... Are you sure you set all the parameters correctly in the world preferences in the logging tab? |

| Well, when I said session I mean each time I connect and disconnect, but i would like it to append to the file all of the text that comes in, no matter what session, i just want one long log. Under logging I have Log Output checked, It says automatcially log to this file, C:\Program Files\MUSHclient\logs\abrealms.txt
Other than that there are no other boxes that I have checked under logging except for write world name to file.
I do have a preamble: %A %B %d %H:%I:%M
Thank you guys for replying. I'll keep trying to get it to work. | Top |

| There is no "append" option for the auto-logging, I suppose I thought that if you auto-appended the file would eventually get huge.
I will make a note to add that, however I suggest you use the date/time special characters to get it to create a new log file each time (for now anyway). |

| Uh, I don't understand. I use a log file for every session, and MUclient appends to that file, which becomes quite huge over time, some GB long, containing many sessions. Or am I talking about something else? |

| You know... my HTML auto-logging is automatically appending to the end of the log file every time. Perhaps it works for HTML but not for plaintext? I doubt it... in any case, mine auto-appends just fine.
Maybe you have to set auto-logging in the world settings, not in global settings. |

| Maybe set "append to log files" in the *global* logging preferences? |

| I have that turned off, but it still is appending in the world log file. Odd... |

| Ah yes, that was the option that made MC append for me. Have you set that, Loverofmushclient? |

| According to the source code, auto-log will always append. |
