Well, I need to allow (am trying to force) other people to monitor the web logs.
But I don't want them anywhere near the actual files. (Shudder.) I want to be able to read the logs (from an 8 machine cluster) through CF, and show a human readable page that combines the logs. For example, 404 errors because they just deleted a file, but it is still on a menu, or they forgot to replicate a file. I am then going to save these errors to a db, then allow the editors to check off which errors have been fixed. So I need to grab off deltas, really. If I had a decent OS, I would just tail the darn thing, and get a reasonable chunk. But I can't install utils on these boxes. And if it was just 404s, I would handle it on the error handler, but they want a lot more than just that. (They want to understand what is happening on the servers, a goal I fully agree with) I do have Perl available, but am still hopeful of a clean CF solution.
