Viewing Access and Server Logs

• Viewing Server Logs.

  wadm> get-log --user=admin --password-file=admin.passwd --host=localhost --port=8989 --start-date=01/01/2006:09:00:00 --end-date=04/01/2006:10:00:00 --config=test cat.test.com

  The preceding command displays the Server Logs of a given configuration between the date 01/Jan/2006:09:00:00 and 04/Jan/2006:10:00:00.

• Viewing Access Logs.

  wadm> get-access-log --user=admin --password-file=admin.passwd --host=localhost --port=8989 --status-code=300 --config=test cat.test.com

  The preceding command will display only those access log entries of a given configuration which have a status code of 300.

In the preceding commands, the start-date and the end-date options must be in the following format — dd/MM/yyyy:HH:mm:ss. The date format can also be customized. You can use a variable wadm_log_date_format in the rcfile to specify your own date format rather than using the default date format.

In the Sun Java System Web Server, you can enable access log by executing the following command:

enable-access-log --user=admin --host=serverhost --password-file=../admin.passwd --port=8989 --ssl=true --no-prompt --rcfile=null --config=config1 --vs=vs --uri-pattern="*.html" --file=../logs/access.new --log-ip=true--format="%Req->reqpb. protocol% %Req->headers.authorization% %vsid% %Ses->client.dns%"
