Redirect tomcat logs in real-time to a browser window

I have got a problem with logging and user interface. I need to display my web application's log in a browser window in real-time, i.e., as a message is logged in a log file, it should also get displayed in the browser window.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Rohit.
I used a similar approach given in http://www.devx.com/tips/Tip/13867 to run the "tail" command. I've partially succeeded in this way.
Now I am able to display the log file content in a text area in my jsp page.
The remaining problem is
"Is there any way to push the contents from tomcat to jsp as soon as the log file changes?"
Since I need to refresh the page periodically to get the latest contents from the log file.
Thanks.

Semantic Logging - RollingFlatFileSink - Real-Time Logging

We're currently using semantic logging and are able to both save to rolling flat files and a sql database.
A difference we're seeing is that the sql sink inserts every x seconds while the rolling flat file sink doesn't insert data until the file rolls over or the service stops.
Is there a way to have inserts happen in real-time for the rollingFlatFileSink?

Please post questions related to this product in their
forums at CodePlex.

Using web.show_document the first time makes new browser window lose focus

Hi,
In our application we use show_document(url, '_blank') to open our reports (as pdf) in a new window.
Our environment is Application Server 10g Release 2 with Forms 10g Release 2 and jinitiator 1.3.1.22.
The first time I call a report, the new browser window containing the pdf is shown but loses focus after about 1 second. The focus is then returned to the applet window. When calling a report again it always keeps the focus.
After closing the applet window and restarting the application, the same thing happens: first report called loses focus, all others keep the focus.
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? We want the focus to stay on the new browser window every time...

Hi Jeroen,
I m also facing a problem something similar to yours. If you got any solution please let me know.
Problem-
Currently my application is running on Forms 9.0.4.2 and my form calls another third party which displays the image in image viewer in new browser. When user clicks on the button to display image, then I m using the following Code -
-- Method: displayDocuments ([Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;
FUNCTION displayDocuments(
obj ORA_JAVA.JOBJECT,
a0 ORA_JAVA.JARRAY) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
BEGIN
args := JNI.CREATE_ARG_LIST(1);
JNI.ADD_OBJECT_ARG(args, a0, '[Ljava/lang/String;');
RETURN JNI.CALL_STRING_METHOD(FALSE, obj, 'com/hli/imaging/adapter/LK_FormsImagingAdapter', 'displayDocuments', '([Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/String;', args);
END;
Image is displaying fine but the focus is staying on the newly opened browser. I want it to get back the focus to the forms window.Is this possible ???
Thanks in advance

SIT Real-time data logging and passing data

Hello all,
I am pretty new to LabView real-time, so I just want to confirm a few things. I am also using the Simulation Interface Toolkit.
Let's take the Sinewave.vi from the SIT examples. I have modified it to use sinewave.dll, and run on PXI-8101. If my understanding is correct, when I click "Play", the entire Sinewave.vi is deloyed into PXI-8101, and therefore the entire VI is running at the same pace. The front panel I see on my desktop is slower snapshots of what is actually happening?
1) Let's pretend now that the sinewave model is time critical and must run every 10ms. How do I do that? I have noticed that within the "SIT_Indicator_Indices" loop, there is a Wait 50ms block. Is that accurate?
2) I have also added a time elapsed block that will change the Frequency and Amplitude inputs as a function of time. I made them update every 2ms. What clock are we running on? If my sinewave.mdl suddenly calculate integration (time dependent), can I use that elapsed time block as my timer to pass into the model?
3) How fast is the sinewave.vi running anyways?
4) Let's say I want a log of the sinewave output (a data point every 10ms). I don't need the log in real-time, I just want to do some analysis on it later. How do I do it?
Thanks.

Hi Bladhart,
When running the in the Development Environment (pressing the run button on the Real-Time vi) there will be an extra thread to handle the front panel you see. This thread will be handled just like any other thread in Real-Time and will take processor time, thus slowing down your entire application to a certain extent.
1. You would need to make sure everthing inside the loop can execute within 10ms and change the wait time to 10ms. Or you can use a timed loop set to run every 10ms and get rid of the wait time but again you would need to ensure everything in the loop can execute in under 10ms.
2. The elapsed time should be running off the Real-Time system clock.
3. The time that the Sinewave.vi is running is system dependent, there is no set speed.
4. You can log the data by saving to a *.tdms file. You can then use the data from the *.tdms file to do processing later.

Real time logging: best practices and questions ?

I've 4 couples of DS 5.2p6 in MMR mode on Windows 2003.
Each server is configured with the default setting of "nsslapd-accesslog-logbuffering" enabled, and the log files are stored on a local file system, then later centrally archived thanks to a log sender daemon.
I've now a requirement from a monitoring tool (used to establish correlations/links/events between applications) to provide the directory
server access logs in real time.
At a first glance, each directory generates about 1,1 Mb of access log per second.
1)
I'd like to know if there're known best practices / experiences in such a case.
2)
Also, should I upgrade my DS servers to benefit from any log management related feature ? Should I think about using an external disk
sub-sytem (SAN, NAS ....) ?
3)
In DS 5.2, what's the default access logbuffering policy : is there a maximum buffer size and/or time limit before flushing to disk ? Is it configurable ?

Usually log-buffering should be enabled. I don't know of any customers who turn it off. Even if you do, I guess it should be after careful evaluation in your environment. AFAIK, there is no configurable limit for buffer size or time limit before it is committed to disk
Regarding faster disks, I had the bright idea that you could creating a ramdisk and set the logs to go there instead of disk. Let's say the ramdisk is 2gb max in size and you receive about 1MB/sec in writes. Say max-log-size is 30MB. You can schedule a job to run every minute that copies over the newly rotated file(s) from ramdisk to your filesystem and then send it over to logs HQ. If the server does crash, you'll lose upto a minute of logs. Of course, the data disappears after reboot, so you'll need to manage that as well. Sounds like fun to try but may not be practical.

I should ask, how realtime should this log correlation be?

Popup Display in Real Time Warning

Hi,
I am using SAP ME 5.2.4.7.
I am configuring Real Time Warning. I configured the following settings.
1) In the event maintenance, I used the event type as RTW_CONSEC_NC and event activity as CONSEC_NC_HOLD_REL. (I used all the default settings of CONSEC_NC_HOLD_REL).
2) In the Pod Maintenance, for * POD, I set the Real Time Event Display as Popup.
3) In Real Time Warning Maintenance, I added top level material, operation and resource where I want real time warning and in the Consecutive Identical NC panel, I added NC Count level as NC Code, Non Conformance as Failure code (F01), Event Type as RTW_CONSEC_NC and Count as 1.
If I do Non Conformance for more than two times for an SFC, there is neither popup message nor the resource setup is changed into Hold Consec NC. But when I set the Real Time Event Display as Window, I am getting a display saying the operation is not available for use in the POD itself.
Kindly let me know whether I need to do any other configurations to get a Popup display?
Thanks,
Joe

Do you have indicators on your front panel that display a value from a software counter?
How are you updating or refreshing the displays? If you have indicators in a while loop then the indicators will be updated with each iteration of the loop.

We have a PCI-6110S to run our VIs. But, we are planing to buy another card (PCI-6024E) to run real time PID vi. So, if they are installed at the same computer, would it be a problem for LabVIEW to run both of them at the same time.

We have PCI-6110 S series installed in our computer. We are planing to purchase PCI-6024 E series card. They will be both installed at the same computer.
1) I am wondering if we run both of them at the same time, would we have any problem?
2) To run PID real time, can any E series of PCI card be used?
Thanks...

Hello Baho,
1) Using Traditional NI-DAQ, there could be problems with the fact that the NI-DAQ driver is not multi-threaded; meaning that while waiting for one operation to complete, the driver could cause another operation to time out. On the other hand, DAQmx is multi-threaded, and would eliminate this problem. At the time of this writing though, DAQmx does not yet support simultaneous-sampling boards like the PCI-6110S. A good solution then would be to use Traditional DAQ for the 6110S and DAQmx for the E-series board, and they would by default run in separate threads.
2) No, using a PCI E-Series board, the LabVIEW VI would have to run in a Windows OS and would not be Real Time or run deterministically. You can run the PID program in Windows, but the
results could be inconsistent. The advantage of a Real Time is that the OS is deterministic or that the OS allows you to tightly control or determine the maximum time any function takes to operate. This kind of control of the maximum operation time is not possible with non-Real Time OSs such as Windows.
If you would like to get set up with a Real Time System, I suggest you contact your Technical Sales Representative.

How to get real time information about how many user are logged in and thei

I use tomcat as my server platform in Ubuntu for a war file.
I know in order to get real time information about how many user are logged in, we can count how many active sessions exist by a SessionCounter code. However, I have to permit HttpSessionListener in web.xml of tomcat. From other users' experiences, the configuration is complexed and has some errors.
Here's the link:http://www.stardeveloper.com/article...1112001&page=1
In order to get users' ip, in jsp, use request.getremotehost() or
request.getremoteaddress() by editing the jsp file.
I wonder if there's some open source software to use for these two purposes.
Thank you!

That url is missing a few bits. The ... in the middle doesn't help.
we can count how many active sessions exist by a SessionCounter code.
However, I have to permit HttpSessionListener in web.xml of tomcat.
From other users' experiences, the configuration is complexed and has some errors.And have you tried it? The configuration isn't that complex.
What errors do you mean? Errors in tracking people, variance in the count? Probably related to internet issues and nothing you can do will alleviate them.

How can I extract the data from a Real-time Execution Trace ".log" file?

I would like to get the data for the traces from the Real-time Execution Trace toolkit ".log" file to read in Excel and generate a report.

Hi Chuck,
Have you tried reading it into a text or binary file first and then generating a report using the Report Generation VIs?

Standby DB real time redo log apply problem

Hi all,
I am using Oracle 10g to create physical standby db. In the standby
db, normal archived log apply does not have problem, but when I try to
use redo log real time apply and issue command
SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE;
it shows:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-38500: USING CURRENT LOGFILE option not available without stand
What is the problem??
Thanks a lot !
Steven

Note:3633226.8 from Metalink states:
Setting a standby's RealTimeApply property to ON when there are no standby
redo logs on the standby or the standby is not in SYNC transport, will
seemingly succeed. However, the apply engine will not start. The DRC log
will report an error like ORA-38500. In this case, add standby redo logs
and set the log transport mode for the standby to be SYNC and set the
standby state to ONLINE.
Workaround:
Add Standby Redo Logs on the standby and set the following broker properties
on the standby:
LogXptMode to SYNC and reset RealTimeApply to ON.
Then set the standby state to ONLINE.

Data guard real time apply vs archived log apply on physical standby

Dear DBA's,
last week i configuared DR , now the phyiscal stanby database is archive apply mode,
i want to confirm is it better to apply the archived log or should i cahnge it to real time apply .
give me sugesstions.
Thanks and Regards
Raja...

One question are you using ARCH transport to move the redo? or have you configured standby redo logs and logwr transport (either async or syncronous), if you are using the archiver to transport the logs then you can not use real time apply.
If you are using log writer to transpor the redo the realtime apply reduces the recovery time required if you need to failover as trher should be less redo to apply to bring the standby up to date, which mode you use to transport redo will depend on what is acceptable in terms of data loss and the impact on performance.

Real - Time Apply some times uses Archived log file

Hi All,
I have a doubt on real time apply in Oracle 10g 10.2.0.4 version where arch process has been configured on primary database and standby has been configured for maximum performance mode with real time apply.
But in standby alert log file i use to find below message rarely
Media Recovery Log /oraclearch/oraarch/ctdr/5548.dbf
Media Recovery Log /oraclearch/oraarch/ctdr/5549.dbfSo my doubt is why archived files are applied as standby has been configured for real time apply where it should apply only from standby online redo log files.
Also i dont find any information on standby database in the view v$standby_log that these standby online log files have been archived in archived column, so how to find how much of data has been written by rfs process on SRL's...
-Yasser

hi,
As the remote file server (RFS) process writes the redo data to standby redo log files on the standby database, log apply services can recover redo from standby redo log files as they are being filled.
please check http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/log_apply.htm

Why can't read access log file in real-time? (Oracle Weblogic Server 10.3)

We can't read access log file in real-time. If access log is rotation to new file so can read access log file but can't read real-time.
*** Oracle Weblogic Server versions 10 R3

what's your meaning? try this command "tail -f access.log".
Threre is a buffer about 8K for WebLogic to write the access info into the log files, so you can't see the access info untill the buffer is full.

Log for Change of Real-Time Load Behavior

Hi experts,
is there a log for the change of the real-time load behavior?
I checked SLG1, but I did not find any object / subobject that seemed to be helpful.
Angie

Firstly,
How are you changing the real-time load behavior, are you using any process chain variant,in that case you can look at the process chain log..
