I'm looking for a log viewer with similar capablilties as Chainsaw, in which I can tail Glassfish log files over for instance SSH/SCP. Does anyone know if such a tool exist?
By default all GlassFish Server log information is captured in the server. log file, typically located in domain-dir /logs. You can view logging information by using the Administration Console or the asadmin utility. You can also open the server.
Because most log files are recorded in plain text, the use of any text editor will do just fine to open it. By default, Windows will use Notepad to open a LOG file when you double-click on it. You almost certainly have an app already built-in or installed on your system for opening LOG files.
In Java, Logging is an API that provides the ability to trace out the errors of the applications. When an application generates the logging call, the Logger records the event in the LogRecord. After that, it sends to the corresponding handlers or appenders.
OtrosLogViewer user VFSFileSystems and can load logs from remote server (ftp, sftp, smb, http). It supports java.util.logging.XMLFormatter and java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter. See: http://code.google.com/p/otroslogviewer/
