RE: Warnings - where do they go?

[Urie, Todd]

I finally figured that out.  I kept seeing the alerts and warnings printed when 
I ran cfagent, but no email.  I figured that it wouldn't hurt to give it a shot 
to try running from cfexecd and that did the trick.

Now I just have to figure out how to warn on files that don't exist.

So far so good.

Thanks for the help.

my understanding (relative newbie here too :) is that cfagent doesn't 
email invoked directly (by default), because you're watching the output.  

if you run from cfexecd, for example, it'll mail you warnings and errors.
