Cannot read custom log files #1

Dear,

I'm trying to use this plugin, but my log files has a slightly different name; hostname_access.log and looks like the plugin isn't finding the log file then.

I've changed it in the: /usr/lib/check_mk_agent/plugins/access_logs_2.py and access_logs.py

the following line

"/var/log/apache2/*_access.log",

Now It works is this a variable in one of the setup fields? Or can you change the line of code in both files?

Kind Regards, Sander

You can configure custom log file paths in addition to the defaults via a separate config file access_logs.conf that must be placed in the config directory of your CheckMK agent (typically /etc/check_mk/access_logs.conf:

log_files = ["/var/log/apache2/*_access.log"]

This way the agent plugin searches for the default locations and your custom locations as well.

Best Regards Markus
