.. include:: /Includes.rst.txt .. _breaking-82430: =================================================================== Breaking: #82430 - Replaced GeneralUtility::sysLog with Logging API =================================================================== See :issue:`82430` Description =========== The original sysLog() logging API has been superseded by the Logging API. Therefore, :php:`GeneralUtility::sysLog` and :php:`GeneralUtility::initSysLog` have been deprecated. The configuration :php:`$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['systemLog']` has been changed to a boolean value. The option :php:`$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['syslogErrorReporting']` has been removed. Impact ====== The Logging API needs custom writer configuration to send the log entries of your choice to the PHP error log, the syslog facility or a file. Affected Installations ====================== Any instance having a configuration set for :php:`$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['systemLog']`. Migration ========= Add a custom log writer configuration to send log entries to the destination of your choice. The Logging API provides these writers as replacements for the original configuration options: - :php:`\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\Writer\SyslogWriter` - :php:`\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\Writer\PhpErrorLogWriter` - :php:`\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Log\Writer\FileWriter` More details on the configuration of log writers can be found in the Core API Reference at ``__. .. index:: LocalConfiguration, PHP-API, NotScanned
