Doug,

If you don't configure uwsgi to do any special logging, then then only
thing you'll see in the log file is client requests, without any kind of
logging from the wsgi application. To have proper logging, one needs to
add, in the uwsgi config file:

paste-logger = true

If you do that, then you need the python3-pastescript installed, which
itself depends on the python3-paste package.

Really, I don't see how an operator could run without the paste-logger
option activated. Without it, you see nothing in the logs.

I hope this helps,
Cheers,
