Rails app logging duplicate requests

Question

I have a Rails app that is generating duplicate requests for every request in development. The app is running Rails 2.3.5 with my primary development machine running Ubuntu

Answer 1

This was happening to me in rails 4.2.3 after installing the heroku rails_12factor gem which depends on rails_stdout_logging

Answer 2

This small workaround solved my issue. Follow these steps:

Under Rails External Libraries, Search for railties module. Go to this path: /lib/commands/server.rb

In this file comment this line, Rails.logger.extend(ActiveSupport::Logger.broadcast(console))

This command will switch off broadcasting, and just restart your rails server. You will not see any repeated logs anymore. Happy coding.
