In order to get your Yii logs into Heroku's logs, you have to work a little bit of magic. You'll need to modify the boot.sh script and add the following two lines: ~~~ touch /app/apache/logs/app_log tail -F /app/apache/logs/app_log & ~~~ This will set up the log and tail it so that when you request "heroku logs", this log is included.

Then, your component looks like this:

class CHerokuLogRoute extends CLogRoute
{
    public function processLogs($logs)
    {
        $STDOUT = fopen("/app/apache/logs/app_log", "a");
        foreach($logs as $log) 
        	fwrite($STDOUT, $log[0]);
        fclose($STDOUT);
    }
}
