Can I stop Drupal logging civimail cron sessions?
September 17, 2010, 11:30:54 am
My civimail.cronjob.php runs every 15 minutes and CiviMailProcessor.php every 30 minutes. A few weeks ago Drupal started logging every one of these cronjob sessions in Administer > Reports > Recent Log Entries. The log is now being clogged with loads and loads of Session opened for cronuser entries, because every 15 minutes it adds a new instance of it.

This never used to happen. Cronuser sessions never used to appear in the Drupal log. I am not sure if it is a result of my CiviCRM upgrade to 3.2.2 or my Drupal upgrade to the latest version.

Is there a way to stop Drupal logging every cron session? The log is so full of cron entries I need to wade through pages and pages of extra log data when I do my log checkups. Does anyone know a way to stop this (either by exempting the cronuser from being logged, or by exempting the server IP from being logged)?

Check whether "Enable Drupal Watchdog Logging" is set to Yes under CiviCRM > Administer > Configure > Global Settings > Debugging. If it is, try turning it off and see if that helps. (This is a fairly recent addition to CiviCRM and may be what's causing the behavior your seeing.)

CiviCRM 3.2 now bootstraps drupal. this allows all scripted jobs to call various hooks. After it bootstraps it logs in, and hence u see the message in watchdog

u'll need to check drupal watchdog docs to see if it can just suppress the cron user messages

For anybody else with this question:

Just noticed that the Drupal log in Admin > Log has a filter, so you can easily filter out the user entries (log-ins, log-outs) etc....

This seems like the easy way to deal with it.
