Log files are always being saved to default directory

See original GitHub issue

I tried running this command:

forever start ./bin/www -l '/logs/nodejs/mylog.log' -o '/logs/nodejs/out.log' -e '/logs/nodejs/error.log' --spinSleepTime 10000 -c

But it keeps saving the logs in the default directory. It completely ignores the flags

FOREVER_ROOT works for me, though it also creates pids and sock directories there. Good enough solution.

You need to add the log destination specifiers before the filename to run. So
forever -e /path/error.txt -o /path/output.txt start index.js

This really works fine in my env!!! ^0^
