Unable to redirect python script result to a text file in windows
Question: Here is my python code.I'm trying to do elastic search in python.

    
    
    from pyes import *
    from pyes.mappings import *
    conn = ES('http://search.twitter.com/search.json?q=poplio')
    conn.indices.create_index("test-index")
    

I'm trying this tutorial
[pyes](http://pyes.readthedocs.org/en/latest/manual/usage.html)

The issue is when i try to run this python script in windows i get a detailed
message on msdos prompt which i don't know if its an error or any thing else.

So i tried to redirect that message to a text file but i don't see any thing
in that file.

Here is how i redirect the output of script

    
    
    python script.py > log.txt
    

But log.txt is empty.

What is going wrong.


Answer: It might be printing those messages to STDERR. Try doing the following:

> python script.py > log.txt 2>&1

This will redirect the STDERR to STDOUT as well. You should see those messages
then.
