underdone Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Hello - (first post from a noob). I recently migrated away from Nas4free having had years of uneventful (and welcomed) use. My unraid is all working very well but on 2 occasions it has stopped: Not shut down but something has stopped disallowing access via network. Console hasn't given any clues to me either. My linux experience is v. poor. I believe I need to be able to write the syslog actively to a drive locally so that I can understand the nature of the problem. Does Enhanced Log viewer allow me to do this? Forgive me if I am on the wrong thread. Many thanks Tim Quote Link to comment
dlandon Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 No it doesn't. What version of unRAID are you using? If 6.4 then post in that forum. Look at this post for help: Quote Link to comment
underdone Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Great stuff - thank you dlandon. Quote Link to comment

Update the plugin and then go to Settings->Syslog Settings and go to the Colors tab and click the Default button. This will load the new default color scheme that is more compatible with the black theme. 1 Quote Link to comment
cjhammel Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Thanks looks good. Quote Link to comment
wblondel Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 (edited) Hi, With or without this plugin, the log page looks exactly the same. Am I missing something? SOLVED: Okay, the plugin doesn't actually replace the LOG icon that is located on the top right corner, it creates a link under the TOOLS tab. Edited July 20, 2019 by wblondel Quote Link to comment
Arbadacarba Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Running into an issue with the "Other" items: I have enabled it in the settings and tried a couple of triggers ("Backup") but nothing seems to work. What I want to do is log my backup actions and have it highlight them... Maybe even have it trigger a red bar with a backup failure. My Log line looks like this: logger Backup ${sequential}/${NumberOfShares} ${ShareNames[counter]} Succeeded -t$PROG_NAME Oct 24 23:18:53 Jupiter Seagate_Backup_Plus_Drive-1: Backup 7/14 EBooks Succeded logger Backup ${sequential}/${NumberOfShares} ${ShareNames[counter]} FAILED -t$PROG_NAME No Example But there is no color on the log.

dlandon Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 I have added Syslog filtering capability. There are times when the Syslog is filled with debug log entries of other non-critical log entries that are clogging up the logs, but don't add any value when debugging. The Syslog Filter lets you add log entries that you want dropped by rsyslog. Read the original post on how to use this feature. Quote Link to comment

No haven't tried, but I would guess that the property you're using is "isequal", which doesn't look like it supports wild cards (neither does "contains") You'd have to use "startswith" or "regex". Not a real use for this, but was simply curious Quote Link to comment

AcidRainX Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Is it possible to add a „tail -n xxx“ Option? to See only the Last 1000 lines? like in webmin logviewer... actually i have to scroll a lot of lines, or clear the log, before Open it Quote Link to comment

Default is 1000. 1 Quote Link to comment
danioj Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Hey @dlandon I hope you're well. Not surprised that this thread isn't the most active as it is a rock solid piece of work and (barring only CA - which makes installing this very easy) is pretty much the first plugin I think someone should install. Following that same train of thought.... would it be a difficult enhancement to the plugin to allow the option to replace the current syslog link with the enhanced syslog view? Much like what is done with the terminal link and the command line plugin by @dmacias?? Quote Link to comment

Still, Id love a button on there which would allow me to raise it with one click no matter where I am in the GUI rather than having to click through the menus. Saying that, not exactly a big issue.

Fraih Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Hello @dlandon, I am translating the plugin to Spanish and I have a question. For the Custom Match field, if someone wants to add a new search string to an event. He should use the English name of the event (i.e. "error", "minor issues", "lime tech", "array", "system", "file system", "drive related", "network", "login", "emhttp", "other") or the Spanish name? Thanks! Quote Link to comment

dlandon Posted November 14, 2020 Author Share Posted November 14, 2020 I am re-evaluating my development efforts with Unraid and need to cut back on some plugins that are not providing core functionality in Unraid. This plugin will be deprecated starting with Unraid 6.9. This plugin does not provide enough of an enhancement to the Unraid OS and I don't have the time to continue development efforts.

MyKroFt Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 understood, thanks for the time you have spent on them already Quote Link to comment
kennymc.c Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Any chance that another developer could continue the support? The functionality is built into Unraid for serval years and i miss this function with 6.10. At least I am not aware that I have installed a plugin for this manually before. I am wondering why the system log in the tools tab still has colored log messages with 6.10. Would it not be possible to continue to display the docker and vm logs in this way, or at least offer this as an option? Quote Link to comment
