AttributeError: Logger instance has no attribute 'setFormatter'

[johnny]

I am getting a log error. I am running ActiveState Python 2.4.3. Any
help greatly appreciated. Here is my code:

file.py
---------

def main()
setupLogging()
blah....

def setupLogging():
global log
log = logging.getLogger("ftp")
formatter = logging.Formatter('%(name)-12s: %(levelname)-8s
%(message)s')

log.setFormatter(formatter)
log.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

fhnd = logging.FileHandler('py_mybase.log')
fhnd.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)
log.addHandler(fhnd)

My Error:
log.setFormatter(formatter)
AttributeError: Logger instance has no attribute 'setFormatter'

If you look for setFormatter in the Python docs, you find that it is
an attribute of Handler instances. So, move it down to fhnd.setFormatter(...)

Also, there is no need to use a global here. The logging machinery
will return always the same logger given the same name. So
logging.getLogger("ftp") will be always the same.
