Hello everyone!
I`m searching for linux log parser application. I already find some ways, but the best looks logzilla.
Requirements:
Web interface for viewing
Filtering in web
Notifications in web or email
Open source
Support linux system logs, custom logs and apache logs.
I will be happy if you will share your experience with multiple linux system log file analyzing centralized.
Regards, Janis!
I am interested in this if the code is written in PHP.
What kind of analytics are you interested in?
Logzilla only works for syslog; isn't that right?
My experience is that zabbix is more flexible than logzilla... and neither is really what I would call 'great' for analysis.
Remember, collecting, aggregating and filtering "events" is not really "analysis"; and neither is simple "event triggering" based on simple pattern matching rules.
When I look at logzilla (as in zabbix), I don't see any analysis capabilities; only aggregation, filtering, and simple rule based pattern matching. This is really not "analysis" in my view.
For example, "analysis" would be a software process that can detect, from Apache2 log files, when an IP address is a "bot" (web spider) without looking at the user agent (UA). This is not easy in the general case and requires some pretty sophisticated analysis over time.
Yeah, I`m using zabbix too. But I can`t get it work well with log files. I only use it for specified process, event, etc.. I wrote bash scripts and then use zabbix trapper. Zabbix is good for system monitoring, but not for log files I think.
Hello!
Still searching for log parsing from Linux Apache to MSSQL. I tried syslog-ng, but it`s logs one Apache line per column. Is there is open source for logging each apache log value to new column?
