Usage of JLog in a component controller

Question

In my component controller, i have implemented JLog but this issue that i have is that the file log isn't created in directoy /logs.

There is the code of the controller that i'am using :

class TdsmanagerControllerWebservice extends JControllerLegacy {
    public function update() {
       jimport('joomla.log.log');


        JLog::addLogger(
            array(
                'text_file' => 'com_tdsmanager.webservice.' . date('Y-m-d') . 'log.php'
            ),
            JLog::ALL,
            array('com_tdsmanager')
        );

        JLog::add(
           "We are in update step", JLog::INFO, 'com_tdsmanager.webservice'
        );
    }
}

Do-you have an idea why JLog not working here ?

Thanks by advance

Answer 1

It seems that the third parameter of JLog::add() is wrong. This parameter is a category and you have set it to 'com_tdsmanager' in JLog::addLogger(). So you should use the same in JLog::add():

JLog::add("We are in update step", JLog::INFO, 'com_tdsmanager');

See the doc https://docs.joomla.org/Using_JLog
