I have to disagree with 4 and 5. Logging everything will quickly run you out of disk space. Checking email is the best source of bug reports. Thats one of the coolest things about having a viral app. Many devs have to root out the bugs themselves or get told weeks later by a user. If you're viral they come screaming in within minutes of a new release.
- theli0nheart 16y agoAppreciate the comments! If you're on your own server, you don't need to be running with the debug loglevel unless you really need it. But if you really need it, you won't be screwed: all you need to do is configure logrotate's size parameter to a reasonable value. Most logs compress very well. On 5, I honestly would have thought your line of thinking was right before this fiasco, but the vast majority of my emails were not bug reports. Most bug reports came through Twitter and Uservoice (when I had it up).
