I updated my rundeck version from 3.4.9 to 4.7.0 in my RHEL8 machine and due to that a new log file has been introduced in the application i.e. "rundeck.audit.events.log". I am trying to figure out what does this file contain that "rundeck.audit.log" does not. So basically, what is the difference between both the log files? Does the new log file contain anything different that other log files don't?
I looked at few articles explaining rundeck.audit.events.log file but it doesn't contain any difference between both the log files.
rundeck.audit.log: Authorization messages pertaining to aclpolicy (more info here).
rundeck.audit.events.log: Logs all auditing events (users logins, logouts, etc..)
More info here.

We have an api deployed on Azure that uses Google authentication. Over the weekend, the API started to throw 500 errors that were resolved after restarting the API. Is there a way to identify what the underlying cause for these errors might be?
Check if you have custom error mode in web.config file to “on” or “Remoteonly”. If
yes then turn it off. Add the following line to System.web element in web.config
Enable custom logging/instrumentation in the code which can help you in more
information.
ASP.NET applications can use the System.Diagnostics.Trace class to log information to
the application diagnostics log. For example
System.Diagnostics.Trace.TraceError("If you're seeing this, something bad happened");
Enable Detailed Error Messages - Detailed version of the html files produced when
your website responds with an error message. This is good to enable for debugging
some error responses in your website. It is stored in the website's file system.
Web Server Logging - Also known as HTTP logs or IIS logs, this will log all requests
to your website in W3C Extended Log File Format.
Failed Request Tracing - Also known as FREB, here you can get lots of information
from IIS through its different stacks for each failing request.
I have a Message Hub instance on Bluemix, and am able to produce / consume messages off it. I was looking for a quick, reasonable way to browse topics / messages to see what's going on. Something along the lines of kafka-topics-ui.
I installed kafka-topics-ui locally, but could not get it to connect to Message Hub. I used the kafka-rest-url value from the MessageHub credentials in the kafka-topics-ui configuration file (env.js), but could not figure out where to provide the API key.
Alternatively, in the Bluemix UI, under Kibana, I can see log entries for creating the topic. Unfortunately, I could not see log entries for messages in the topic (perhaps I'm looking the wrong place or have wrong filters?).
My guess is I'm missing something basic. Is there a way to either:
configure a tool such as kafka-topics-ui to connect to MessageHub,
or,
browse topic messages easily?
Cheers.
According to Using the Kafka REST API on Bluemix you need an additional header in all API requests:
-H "X-Auth-Token: APIKEY"
A quick solution is to edit the topic-ui code and include your token in every request. Another solution would be to use a Chrome plugin that can inject the above header. For a more formal solution, i have opened a ticket on github
how can I change the directory where capistrano puts its log files? I could not find in the docs.
Currently the logs appear in myapp/log/... on my dev machine. However, since I am using laravel, and there is a log directory myapp/storage/logs I would like capistranos logs to appear here as well.
Do you mean the capistrano.log file that is created and appended to whenever you deploy?
You can specify the location by adding the following to deploy.rb:
set :format_options, log_file: "storage/logs/capistrano.log"
This tells Airbrussh (the default logging implementation in Capistrano 3.5.0+) where to place the log file. More information here: https://github.com/mattbrictson/airbrussh#configuration
How can JBoss requests/responses ONLY be logged using log4j?
For my 3-tiered application (client, web-service and database), I'm trying to gather request/response times.
For instance, timestamps before/after:
Client sends request
WS receives request
WS sends query to database
Currently, my log displays several thousand lines of text (DEBUG mode). But, I'm looking only for request/response information.
I suppose I could choose a different log level, but I'm not able to find my log4j.xml that most solutions are referring to (server/xxx/conf/jboss-log4j.xml). The log4j.properties file in my Eclipse for some reason is not allowing edits.
I'm new to JBoss; in fact inherited the current setup from somebody else, so I'm a little clueless about the entire JBoss thing.
Edit 1
Examples of log4j.properties can be found here.
Edit 2
My log4j.properties:
log4j.rootLogger=TRACE, file
log4j.appender.file=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender
log4j.appender.file.File=C\:log4j.log
log4j.appender.file.MaxFileSize=1MB
log4j.appender.file.MaxBackupIndex=1
log4j.appender.file.layout=org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout
log4j.appender.file.layout.ConversionPattern=%d{ABSOLUTE} %5p %c{1}:%L - %m%n
log4j.category.org.springframework.beans.factory=DEBUG
It's probably best to configure logging through the logging subsystem. If you're looking to use your a log4j configuration file, see the instructions here.
I have a WCF service that will serve multiple clients. I'm using ent lib for the logging.
I'd like to have a different log file for each client. is there a way to change the file name back and forth?
I found a few threads but they all talk about editing the config file during runtime.
ALso found this: Enterprise Library Logging but it talks about environment variables. I will set the log name according to the client id.
Thanks
Avi
You can have distinct categories linked to individually configured FlatFile or RollingFile tracelisteners for each client.
If filenames are unknown till runtime, consider using fluent API for configuration, like so:
