logging.config.dictConfig does not seem to work

What is wrong with this code? It prints out Whatsup to the stdOut, and nothing to the file in /tmp. It creates the file, but nothing is ever written to it, not even when loggging loads of data ('w'*20000). And there doesn't seem to be any handler specified either after I check.

>>> logger.handlers
[]
>>> logger.warning("Whatsup")
Whatsup
>>>

import logging
import logging.config
import multiprocessing

import threadfilter

VERBOSE_LOGGING = 1
directory = '/tmp/'



configDict = {
                'version': 1,
                'disable_existing_loggers': False,
                'formatters': {
                    'detailed': {
                        'class': 'logging.Formatter',
                        'format': '%(asctime)s - %(levelname)s =%(threadName)s= - Completer: %(message)s'
                    }
                },
                'handlers': {
                    'fileH': {
                        'class': 'logging.FileHandler',
                        'filename': '%s/ZZZZZZZZZZ_dispatcher_jobComplete3r.log' % (directory),
                        'formatter': 'detailed'
                    }
                },
                'loggers': {
                    'root': {
                        'handlers': ['fileH'],
                        'level': VERBOSE_LOGGING
                    }
                }
}

logging.config.dictConfig(configDict)
logger = logging.getLogger()
logger.handlers
logger.warning("Whatsup")

No errors are thrown either, it just seems to silently ignore my config.

Python 3.6.1

Posted 2 second too soon.

I had to explicitely call the name of the root logger in my getLogger call. This did the trick:

logging.config.dictConfig(configDict)
logger = logging.getLogger('root')
logger.handlers
logger.warning("Whatsup")

Sorry!
