Hi folks, Can anyone recommend any open source log analysis and monitoring programs. Preferably something web-based. I would like to use it in a multi-server environment with all the logs accessible through one server. I would also like to receive notification of any serious issues. Is that asking for too much Thanks in advance for your responses
Might help you: http://vichargrave.com/ossec-log-management-with-elasticsearch/ -- though it is mainly for security, it can help with log collection in general.
Thank you, I will take a look at this. Do you have any experience with Splunk? How does this compare?
I have never used Splunk myself, but a friend of mine is using it successfully. The web interface is very nice and powerful and from what he said, it is a great product. The free version if limited to 500MB of logs (don't know the period) though...
