Python logging file config KeyError: 'formatters'

I had this issue because Python couldn't find my config file, though you would never know it by the error message. Apparently it does not look for the config file relative to the file in which the code is running, but rather relative to the current working directory (which you can get from os.getcwd()). I used the following code to initialize the logger. The log.config file is in the same directory as the file running this code:

from os import pathlog_file_path = path.join(path.dirname(path.abspath(__file__)), 'log.config')logging.config.fileConfig(log_file_path)

d512 was correct.And when running the code and based on the PYTHONPATH, Python treats your project root directory as the 'current path' no matter where is your running file located. So another way is to add the relative path either as following:

logging.config.fileConfig('root_path_of_project/.../logging.conf')

or relative to the current file:

LOGGING_CONFIG = Path(__file__).parent / 'logging.conf'...logging.config.fileConfig(LOGGING_CONFIG)

Hope it helps

Try to replace

logging.config.fileConfig('../logging.conf', disable_existing_loggers=False)

with this

logging.config.fileConfig('logging.conf', disable_existing_loggers=False)

Not sure, but probably your logging.conf is in your current working directory, and with the .. the file cannot be found.
