I agree with Tim the full log seems more usefull.
Tim suggested to use a log analysis tool. From Contegix experience Apache
Chainsaw does not seem to be a good candidate.
There are also MindTree Insight
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?forum_id=805978
and Vigilog http://vigilog.sourceforge.net/ but I'm not sure we need a such
tools for now...

I actually like the idea of having the entire logs for the day available the
day after. We could easily do it just like we do
build.ofbiz.org for the daily builds - having something like logs.ofbiz.org
with a similar style and having them available for
viewing. We could even have individual errors available via the route that you
were talking about David - by having OFBiz send
them to a place where we can pluck them off.
Something like this could be really helpful. Anyways, let's keep chatting on
it - but the full days logs being available the next
day makes good sense to me.
Cheers,
Tim

Something like [email protected]? I imagine that the errors
will be less than helpful without the steps that caused it - but it
could be a start? I'm not opposed to just making the previous days
log file available to people who want to scan it as well.
I've also got a thread going with Contegix about this very thing at
the moment talking about other helpful ways of looking at logs - will
loop you in David.
Cheers,
Tim
