There may be a much more elegant way to do what you want, but I've found the following ghetto method to be sufficiently effective :
echo "`date` : Doing the next thing..."
Вопрос
I'm using upstart on Ubuntu to manage services. It writes to /var/log/upstart/<service>.log
. Errors in this file don't have timestamps, which makes it difficult to diagnose problems.
Is there a way -- a stanza of some kind in the config file -- to tell upstart to write timestamps with its log output?

You can try using annotate-output
shell script from the devscripts package:
Source code here.
Your service should maintain the dates/timing...
The logs which appear in the logs under /var/log/upstart/
are the output of your upstart script .
Also you can add a pre-start and a pre-stop section into your conf file, to print the time before the service is ran and the timing after the service has stopped:
pre-start script
echo "[`date`] <YOUR SERVICE NAME> Starting" >> /var/log/<YOUR SERVICE NAME>.log
end script
pre-stop script
echo "[`date`] <YOUR SERVICE NAME> Stopping" >> /var/log/<YOUR SERVICE NAME>.log
end script
