How do I debug following?

I have custom search command generatereport that I have developed on Linux, I am using logger to print information I need. Everything works fine there. I even get error with python output line of code if something is wrong.

But when I move my command to Windows I don't receive detailed error message, only Error in 'script' and it is almost impossible to debug. Is there a way how to read python log and found out what happened? Script had to fail somewhere.

I have no idea why this issue was connected to the logger but once I set stderr_dest = log instead stderr_dest = message it started working.
