lucene-based log searcher?

Hello list,

has anyone built a log-analyzer based on Lucene?
Our logs are so big that grep takes more hours to do what I want it to do.
I'm sure Lucene would solve it.

Thanks in advance
paul

Hi Paul,

I saw this yesterday, but haven't tried it myself:

http://karussell.wordpress.com/2010/10/27/feeding-solr-with-its-own-logs/

The author has a project called "Sogger" - Solr + Logger? - that can read various forms of logs.

Hi,

I almost finished these days to write such a tool.

It reads via FTPClient the log files and adds to Lucene index.

Via small Web application you can see/filter/sort the log messages.

Hi,

I haven't tried that myself so far but may be you can check logstash as well
(http://www.loggly.com/2010/11/do-you-have-a-logstash/).

Regards,
Lukas

If you can define one searchable word for the whole log message and index
this word only maybe you can use DB instead.
I apply Analyzer to every and whole log message text - and then I can
quickly find all messages, that have e.g. "NullPointerException" or "user
not found" text or anything else.

In DB using select with "LIKE '%something%'" will do full table scan.
