Florian Riedl Tue, 18 Nov 2008 18:04:52 +0100 http://www.phplogcon.org/Article49.phtml We have created a virtual syslog appliance, featuring rsyslog and phpLogCon to build a great virtual logging "box". The system currently works with VMWare and is in a somewhat early development stage. Still, it is quite useful if you would like to have an out of the box system that successfully logs and makes these logs searchable via a web interface. To download, please visit this link: http://www.rsyslog.com/Downloads-req-viewdownloaddetails-lid-136.phtml Feedback on the appliance is much appreciated. Please provide it via the syslog appliance forum. Questions are also welcome.

Support was implemented for analyzing Webserver logfiles from Apache and Microsoft IIS. There is a collection of new fields available, and filtering is possible.

A new page called "asktheoracle.php" was added, which will be automatically linked on IP addresses and domain names. It is a simple helper page which creates a bunch of useful filter links. Some basic documentation was added into the doc folder.

Support for exporting the current visible events into an XML or CSV file was added. Filter Engine was extended to support full and partial text searches on string fields.
