Hi,
I have a set of production servers that LogViewPlus can read the error.txt file. I was wondering if it is possible to run it from command line and email the error using SMTP notification?
Example:
New Prod Servers group Workspace - Server 1, Server 2 etc.
Goal: SMTP of Server 1, Server 2 etc log level error (see screen shot)
Hope that helps.
Thanks,

Hi,
Thanks for reaching out.
You can start LogViewPlus from the command line and open a target workspace. However, LogViewPlus is a GUI application. It needs to run within a user / windowed environment. It cannot run as a background process or service.
Hope that helps,
Toby

Hi,
I looked at the command line options but I can't seem to open specific workspace as seen on the screenshot previous post. Since you mentioned it is GUI application and I get it that it can't run as a service, how do I send SMTP of the error log? Will there be a plan down the road to include command line options to do more that only GUI can do now?

You can use LogViewPlus to monitor a log file and send email - but the application will need to be running for a logged in user.
By default, LogViewPlus stores all log entries read in memory. This makes LogViewPlus a memory intensive program. If you want a server process which monitors your log files, you are probably looking for something more light-weight.
We would like to create a separate server process which is built on the LogViewPlus parsing logic, but this isn't something that we are actively working on at the moment.
Hope that helps,
Toby
