Here is a short list of issues you might be facing when using LogHappens:

• LogHappens can't read apache's error.log!

  By default, apache log files are not readable by apache itself. Which is a good thing, at least on a production server. If you are on a development machine though you might want to give those files the correct permissions in order to be usable with LogHappens.
  Here's how you do it:

  • Edit /etc/logrotate.d/apache2, find the line saying create 640 root adm and replace with create 777 root adm.
  • Add 777 permissions to the apache logs directory: sudo chmod -R 777 /var/log/apache2/
• LogHappens can't read my application's log files!

  Just set that file's permissions to 777, so that LogHappens can both read and write (truncate) that file.

• How do I add a log file to be tracked?

  Just add a new record in your config.json file, and set the values according to your preferences.

• Can I share a new parser?

  Of course! If you have created your own parser, please send it to me, I will be glad to add it to the other parsers!

• Is there any kind of support with LogHappens?
