HA!

Finally figured out the logging bit... a few changes to the config file, combined with:

logFiles  = [ 'logging.conf',
             join( expanduser( '~'  ), 'logging.conf'  ), 
             join( dirname( __file__ ), 'logging.conf'  ), 
             None ] 
  
for  logFile in  logFiles: 
     if  exists( logFile ): 
         print  "Using  logfile  %s"  % logFile 
         logging.config.fileConfig( logFile ) 

Fixed the problem
