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

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

New — In Sun Java System Web Server Update 1, 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%"
