Where does the console log reside?

I am having to rewrite several scripts due to changes in Leopard.
I cannot find the location of "console.log" - any help would be appreciated.

on a related note, has anyone had any success generating asl queries via shell? i've looked into it but not that deeply. the asl.conf man page seems to indicate it's possible, but i'm not sure how.
Try man syslog. I'm not sure where to look for all the keywords, but I got this to work first time:
macbook:~ michaelc$ syslog -k Sender ntpd
Sun Dec 2 17:07:20 macbook ntpd[24] <Notice>: time reset +1.377290 s
Sun Dec 2 22:12:49 macbook ntpd[24] <Notice>: time reset +0.644079 s
Mon Dec 3 15:40:53 macbook ntpd[24] <Notice>: time reset -0.302815 s
Note that syslog with no arguments gives you everything

  • Where does the iPhoto library reside?

    Where does the iPhoto library reside on your hd?  when I go to the search bar above, it shows 2 libraries!  I am about out of hd space so I am hoping that it has been duplicated somehow.  It's about 36GB. =)
    Thanks for your help!
    MK

    By default it's in your Pictures Folder.
    If space is an issue you can move the Library to an external disk:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

  • Where does the song metadata reside (cover art work and other information)?

    I edit the metadata for each album/song - add cover art, correct any album name or artists erros, make some notes to myself to help search/browse. Where does this data reside - with the song file or the library file or somewhere else? BTW I don't download the cover artwork from iTunes. I just find it online and copy and paste it into the metadata window. I have too many obscure albums to rely on iTunes.
    The reason I ask is because I double backup my music and iTunes files. Normally, when I rip new albums I just add the new files and updated library files to me backup hard drives, by sorting by the modified date. But I'm now going back and editing all of my oder albums/songs metadata as I just described. In order to make sure this information gets backed up I'm simply backing up the entire iTunes Music folder, which takes all night cause it's around 500GBs. But I'd prefer to only add the modified files to the backup, which usually only takes a few moments.
    When I sort by modified date the albums/songs I edited metadata for do not show up as modified that day. So, is it pointless to always backup the entire folder when all I have to do is back up what was modified? And if so, what are those files?
    Also, is there a good app that will compare two hard drives and keep them in synch? So that I can basically do what I want to do automagically? Set one as the master and one as the backup, and ahve the app always synch the backup to the master. That would be nice!

    If you're not downloading artwork from iTunes, all of the tags and artwork are stored with the individual song files. Some iTunes-specific data, like play count and rating, are stored in the iTunes Library database file.

  • Where does the View Controller reside ?

    Hi Gurus,
    Some basic doubts : I can't see the View and Window Controllers in SE80 . Where does it reside ? or it can only be reffered through code.
    Thanks in advance

    The controllers can be accessed only by code, calling the wd_get_api on the wd_this, wd_comp_controller attributes.
    Ofcourse, you can check the interface methods etc of  if_wd_view_controller in se24.

  • Where does the banner info reside in the database

    When you create a page and check display banner to on, you can edit the banner by adding links etc.
    Does anyone know where the links are actually stored in the database ?
    null

    Hi Binosn,
    Thanks for your interest and reply.
    Wanted to know some more details regarding the document publisher.
    How does the backend push the report to the Gateway, is there also a queue maintained in the backend system which processes the report requests asynchronously or the Gateway report publisher pulls them synchronously or is there any component necessary to be installed in the backend system for processing reports?
    Is the document publisher feature a gateway feature or a Duet Enterprise specific feature?
    Please suggest some material for further details if available.
    Regards,
    Avishek.

  • WHere are the console logs in NW04 EP6?

    Hi all,
    Sorry for the late response.
    The WebAS Java 6.40 logs can be found in /usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/j2ee/cluster/server<N>/log.
    The /usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE>/work directory contains the logs of the Startup Framework.

  • Where does the INI file reside?

    I've seen lots of forum posts on using the Properties class to read an INI file, but nothing on locating the INI file in the file system. Most of the examples use a hard-coded simplistic path (c:\temp\myapp.ini) or just the file name with no path.
    From my meager knowledge of Java, I think the INI file should be deployed in the package directory with rest of the class files for the package. At any rate, the Java class reading the INI file cannot have a hard-coded directory path since the path may vary from install to install.
    What Java statements can be used to identify the path for the run-time package? Where is the best place to place the INI file?
    Thanks,
    Paul

    You put it somewhere in your classpath, as you describe. Then this.getClass().getResourceAsStream("/myapp.ini")gets you an InputStream from which you can read its contents.

  • Where does the inactive object reside?

    Hi
    I am new to abap. I want to know when we create a object in the data dictionary, where is it stored?
    I do know that when we activate the object a same replica is created in the database having the syntax valid in the database.
    I just want to know if i have created one object which is not activated where it will be stored?
    Thanks,
    Sarbjeet Singh

    Hi Sarabjeet,
    When a program/objects  is created without saving till that time it is only in application sever and thereafter when are you pressing
    'SAVE' , then only it is stored to the backend database as inactivate version.
    While code changing (modifications) both inactive and active versions are stored in the database.
    When it is inactive(if you are executing it alone ), only you can use it not other system users(Note:  you can't use one inactive versions object in another active objects.)
    Once it is activated, all other users of same client can use your Program/objects.

  • Where does the logging in RDBMSRealm go  --and-- are some JavaDocs missing?

    I see that a LogOutputStream is created in the example
    class RDBMSRealm, but where do all of the log
    statements go. The LogOutputStream is created as:
    log = new LogOutputStream("RDBMSRealm");
    but I do not see and file called RDBMSRealm and/or
    I do not see the log statements on stdout.
    BTW, I do have logging set to the most detailed
    level (Info) from the console if this matters.
    Also, are there some JavaDocs missing from
    Weblogic's Reference website at
    http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs60/javadocs/index.html
    LogOutputStream is an example. I do not see the
    class when I select the package
    weblogic.logging.
    Where is it?
    Much Thanks
    Bill Ralenkotter.

    Thanks Terry,
    Sorry, I should have mentioned that I am using WL6.0.
    Does anyone know what I need to do to get the RDBMS Realm log to start on
    WL6.0.
    About the missing JavaDocs: Also, if I am doing development using these
    classes I still do not
    understand why they are not on the 6.0 refernce site!
    About the missing JavaDocs,
    I see java docs for a lot of classes, but what document do I use that
    helps me to understand the entire framework? The Programming
    Weblogic Security does give this information.
    Example question: how do I get a reference to the realm to create
    users? Should I even be doing this?
    Thanks for your help.
    Bill.

    If you are using WLS5.1 you much set the property
    weblogic.security.realm.debug=true
    then this information will be sent to stdout. This is set to false by
    default, as there is a lot of information, and it is a big performance
    hit.
    I think weblogic likes to avoid some of its APIs being public, which is
    annoying at times, but probably reasonable

  • Where does the Mail cache file reside?

    My email inbox suddenly doesn't show anything newer than April 2011. The last time this happened, Apple Care walked me through deleting an AOL or Mail cache file, but I can't find it now. Where does the archived mail cache hide?

    If you have iTunes set to consolidate your Library, then yes, you have 3 copies of the movie, USB, ITunes library folder, and iPad.
    If not, then iTunes merely adds a pointer to the current location of the file, and then copies it over to the iPad.
    If the USB is removed, the movie is still technically part of the library, but will not be accessible, it will show up grayed out and not be playable.

  • SUDO is causing entries in the console log. A Virus?

    Hello,
    I was looking through my OSX installation and I found this mysterious file placed in my Application Support Folder in my library:
    username/library/application support/7103555
    It is named "7103555" and it is a Unix Executable File (according to "Get Info")
    I am worried it might be a virus. I don't recall putting it there. The only time I used terminal so far was to open a Profile Manager for Mozilla Thunderbird. I see that it mentions PrinterNotification and I do recall installing an HP printer driver. Is that where it might have come from. Is this normal? May I delete it? Should I reset something back in console? I am not sure what to do here.
    Should I be concerned?
    Thank you for any advice.
    This is what it looks like when I open it:
    cd /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/PrinterNotifications.bundle/Contents/MacOS
    # SUDO is causing entries in the console log making me believe
    # that it's not getting run correctly. I am removing SUDO from the
    # command lines.
    #sudo ./makequeues -u
    #sudo ./makequeues -r
    ./makequeues -u;./makequeues -r&
    exit 0

    Mulder,
    <<sarcasm mode on>>
    You got me there: I can't even spot a simple shell script and figure out what it does and why. Nor could I explain it in plain 'Merican English to poor ol' rainforest. Nope, I must have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.
    <<sarcasm mode off>>
    HINT: This is well within my area of expertise.
    To quote one of your compadres, who "borrowed" it from answers.com:
    "computer virus n. A computer program that is designed to replicate itself by copying itself into the other programs stored in a computer. It may be benign or have a negative effect, such as causing a program to operate incorrectly or corrupting a computer's memory."
    A little further on in the same page:
    "Virus
    Software used to infect a computer. After the virus code is written, it is buried within an existing program. Once that program is executed, the virus code is activated and attaches copies of itself to other programs in the system. Infected programs copy the virus to other programs."
    and
    "Viruses Must Be Run to Do Damage
    A virus is not inserted into data. It is a self-contained program or code that attaches itself to an existing application in a manner that causes it to be executed when the application is run."
    On to Leap-A, from the description in Macworld (edited for brevity and clarity):
    "...[W]hen you try to launch the newly-infected application, an apparent bug ... in the code prevents it [the application] from launching. But, ... a lot just happened:
    A Spotlight search for the most-recently-used user-owned applications is run, and ... up to four of those programs at a time are infected...
    The above process will repeat each time you try to launch an infected application."
    The process described above fully conforms to the definition. Therefore, your, uh, "1337" assertion is wrong: Leap-A IS a virus.
    -Wayne
    PS I'll even make a more radical assertion: The first OS X viruses were written in 1983 by Fred Cohen. My source? Professor Cohen (after all, he invented the computer virus), who told me, "the first viruses written for the original experiments run on current Mac OSX systems without even a recompilation."

  • Will the console log show a history of random shutdowns?

    My macbook has suddenly started the random shutdown problem. It started a couple of days ago, I'd had no problems up until then. At one point today it was shutting down immediately on waking from sleep, and then would only stay on for about two minutes with the fans racing before, bang, off it would go. I left it alone in exasperation, then returned to try again, and this time it lasted around an hour before shutting down repeatedly again. I will need to take it home to the UK to my local Apple service centre and I am worried that if it doesn't actually shut down in front of them when they have it they will tell me there is no problem and won't repair it. I know that this macbook has the RSS issue now but it really is random, so can I prove it from the console log? I looked through this just now and of course most of it means nothing to me but I did notice that there was a line saying "cause of last shutdown -72" occuring many times since this started. Does anyone know what this refers to and will it show that the problem is definitely happening?

    What does the holding the button down trick do?
    From the Apple article I referenced in your earlier thread:
    "If your MacBook is in a state where it will not remain on long enough to install the update, wait for the issue to reproduce itself. Once the MacBook has turned itself off, turn the computer on the by holding the power button down. Keep the button down until you hear a single long tone. Once you hear the tone you can release the button, install the recommended updates, and restart as you would expect."
    Allegedly, this throttles the CPU to 1 GHz.
    And I am slightly worried that a2dox says that the
    problem returned even after the repair..!
    Different experiences for different people, during the period when Apple had not yet figured out the problem. Their contract repair facility was doing different repairs, some getting heat sink replacements, some logic board replacements, some both, and, later, some a differently designed heat sink. When one of those repairs didn't fix the problem, they would do another.

  • Where is the mail.log in Leopard

    I can't find the mail.log in the console logs. Where is it?

    I don't see anything in /var/log named mail.log. What am I looking for?
    The details in Mail Connection Doctor would be perfect if they are logged somewhere. I'm fairly new to Apple and see they log just about everything else.
    I'm having intermittent password issues with Mail where it does not connect to the mail server and I have to enter my password even though it's stored in the keychain. I'd like to see a connection log that I can look over to try and find the problem. I think it's a problem with my ISP. The error does not happen on a regular basis and I've never had Connection Doctor running when it has happened and thought there might be a mail log somewhere.
