Well most common use of redirection is more redirecting STDERR to STDOUT:
I tend to keep both separate specially when using cron, as if in a rush, if you redirect all to error.log you are to read the whole file just to look for a possible issue but if you keep them separate:
Now my expectations is to see my_cron_job.err file size = 0 meaning all is well... and no point to look at my_cron_job.log if I am busy as all I will find there are the results of the job that executed correctly as the .err is empty...

Reason: Typos - Thanks Rudi
In bash, I need to send the STDOUT and STDERR from a command to one file, and then just STDERR to another file. Doing one or the other using redirects is easy, but trying to do both at once is a bit tricky. Anyone have any ideas? (9 Replies)
If I forget to set up stderr redirection on execution of a script, is there a way to set that redirection post-exec? In other words, if I have a script running and no errors are being logged... and then I remember that I forgot the 2>&1 on the script... can I turn it on after the fact?

Friends
I have to redirect STDERR messages both to screen and also capture the same in a file.
2 > &1 | tee file works but it also displays the non error messages to file, while i only need error messages.

I have a simple script written in awk whose purpose is to go through some php files and replace some strings. Naturally, I want the changes to be written out to the files. The script looks generally as follows:

Hi folks
I need/want to redirect output (stdout, stderr) from an exec call to separate files. One for stderr only and two(!) different (!) ones for the combined output of stderr and stdout.

DESCRIPTION
The check_<type>_<operation>(x, y, err) family of functions perform the specified arithmetic operation (addition, subtraction, multiplica-
tion, or division) with the left operand of x and right operand of y and return the arithmetic result with the specified type.
Either operand x or y (or both) can be of any type that is compatible to signed or unsigned 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit, or 64-bit integers.
The err argument is or'ed by flags in the function to indicate if an overflow has occurred. The possible flag values are:
CHECKINT_NO_ERROR no overflow has occurred
CHECKINT_OVERFLOW_ERROR overflow has occurred
CHECKINT_TYPE_ERROR operand is of an incompatible type
The err argument is not cleared in calls to the check_<type>_<operation>(x, y, err) functions. Detected overflow persists in the err argu-
ment until err is reset to CHECKINT_NO_ERROR.
RETURN VALUES
If successful, the check_<type>_<operation>() functions will return the arithmetic result of performing the operation with left operand x and
right operand y (even when overflow error occurs).
If any other error occurs, the return value is -1 and the argument err will be set to indicate the error.
EXAMPLES
/* Create a variable to store overflow flag */
int32_t err = CHECKINT_NO_ERROR;
/* Use checkint API to perform an arithmetic operation and
* store result in variable. */
int32_t arithmetic_result = check_int32_add(UINT_MAX, 1, &err);
/* Check status of overflow flag */
if (err & CHECKINT_OVERFLOW_ERROR) {
/* Perform overflow resolution code */
fprintf(stderr, "Overflow detected!
");
}
/* Check for type error */
else if (err & CHECKINT_TYPE_ERROR) {
/* Deal with incompatible types error */
fprintf(stderr, "Incompatible types!
");
}
/* Reset overflow flag for next operation */
err = CHECKINT_NO_ERROR;
ERRORS
The check_<type>_<operation>() functions may fail if:
[CHECKINT_TYPE_ERROR] operand is of an incompatible type
HISTORY
The checkint() API was introduced in Mac OS X 10.5.
