sphinxsearchHow can I configure SphinxSearch to log to stdout?

SphinxSearch can be configured to log to stdout with the following steps:

1. Open sphinx.conf in a text editor.
2. Find the searchd section and add the following line:

   log = stdout

3. Save and close sphinx.conf.
4. Restart SphinxSearch with the --config option, e.g. searchd --config /etc/sphinx/sphinx.conf.

The output will then be written to stdout, e.g.
