Log filteration of linux log

[agoswami]

Hi,
I am working in one application which is written in c++ with millions lines of code with linux enviroment. They provide all logs in logs file during invoking of application

We got all information into File like file info, backtrace,data inforamtion and data base query.In short it contain all information about function and file and data base during ivoking application.

So we got Log file which contain near about 1 million line of code which is
very difficult to read when we got any bug/issue.


Could anyone provide me any tool info in linux or any other approach which help us to filter this log.


Please let me known also if you have any info to handle this type of file.

Please let me know if this is not correct place and point me correct place.

I don't see the problem. Just load it into a text editor and do a search for whatever you're looking for.

that's true that is way I searched in the vi editior But some time we need to go through
complete log analysis becuase application will be working fine but some of the functionality
of the application would not working...

like some of component will through exception and it will be catch in main application and
you do not what kind of exception will return from small component

So I thogut it would be great if we have any tool which provide better way of log analysis or

filteration...


I hope I have convenyed my message
