I'm using the dict logging config approach because that is what works 
for Django out of the box. Here is an excerpt from my config:

logfile = "my_logfile".encode(encoding='utf_8', errors='strict')

LOGGING = {
     'version': 1,
     'disable_existing_loggers': False,
     'handlers': {
         'file': {
             'level': 'DEBUG',
             'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
             'formatter': 'default',
             'filename': logfile,
         },

The errors appear on the console and not in the log file. Obviously.

Maybe I should try the Django list?

Any other ideas?

Thanks again

Mike
