By default, PHP Tail is configured for the following log files:

  • App Install
  • HDA Updates
  • HDA Production
  • Boot
  • DNF


To include additional logs, you must edit the Log.php (located in /var/hda/web-apps/phptail/html).

Select Settings from the menu and choose Edit Config in the PHP Tail Settings popup window.

You can now edit the Log.php in your web browser.

Once finished, choose Save and Continue.

As a precaution, a timestamped backup of Log.php before the changes will be saved.

For example to add the Greyhole log file, you would make the following change:

Before:
$tail = new PHPTail(array(
    "App Install" => "/var/log/amahi-app-installer.log",
    "HDA Updates" => "/var/log/hda-updates.log",
    "HDA Production" => "/var/hda/platform/html/log/production.log",
    "Boot" => "/var/log/boot.log",
    "DNF" => "/var/log/dnf.log",
));
After:
$tail = new PHPTail(array(
    "App Install" => "/var/log/amahi-app-installer.log",
    "HDA Updates" => "/var/log/hda-updates.log",
    "HDA Production" => "/var/hda/platform/html/log/production.log",
    "Boot" => "/var/log/boot.log",
    "DNF" => "/var/log/dnf.log",
    "Greyhole" => "/var/log/greyhole.log",
    "Sync" => "/var/log/amahi-sync.log",
    "Anywhere" => "/var/log/amahi-anywhere.log",
));

You can add any log file, providing it is readable by your user. Unfortuntately, those that require root access, will not be work.

The order of the files is how they will appear in the Files drop-down menu in the application. If you want a specific file first, reorder the list in Log.php.
