Display Log Files
NOTE: THIS PLUGIN IS NOW OBSOLETE. Since Zen Cart v1.5.7 it is now built-in to your Admin. Go to Admin->Modules->Plugin Manager to enable it. (And if you had this plugin installed before upgrading to v157, it would be best to delete all of its files from your site as part of your upgrade.) There have been many times that I've taken a look in one of my Zen Cart's /logs (or /cache for Zen Cart v1.5.0) directories and found some debug log files that I wasn't previously aware of. This plugin allows an admin user to view (and selectively delete) any files with names that match: myDEBUG-*.log AIM_Debug_*.log SIM_Debug_*.log FirstData_Debug_*.log Linkpoint_Debug_*.log Paypal*.log paypal*.log ipn_*.log zcInstall*.log notify*.log The plugin searches only in these directories for the matching log-files: /cache /logs /includes/modules/payment/paypal/logs Once installed, the plugin can be accessed by a signed-in and authorized admin user by selecting Tools->Display Log Files. NOTE: Due to the potentially sensitive nature of the information contained in some of the log files, I suggest that you run your admin in SSL mode if you use this plugin. The tool allows the logged-in (and authorized) admin user to: Sort the log files, either ascendingly or descendingly, by last-modified/creation date. Select (via checkbox) and then delete only the log files selected. Delete all log files currently being viewed. View the contents of an individual log file. |

Version History
Display Log Files - Version: v2.2.0 | |||||||||||||
This release contains changes associated with GitHub issue #14, recognizing that log-file names might now include a trailing error-severity suffix. Aligns with "Report All Errors" v3.1.0. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v2.1.2 | |||||||||||||
This version corrects an integration issue with zc156+, where the logfile names were slightly changed ... causing the "Display debug-logs only?" checkbox feature to no longer work. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v2.1.1 | |||||||||||||
This version restores the log-file sort functionality, mistakenly removed in v2.1.0. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v2.0.0 | |||||||||||||
v2.0.0 of the plugin has been redesigned so that there are no longer any core-file overwrites, enabling its use on all (current) Zen Cart versions in the 1.5.x series! This version also includes a filter (so you can view only the myDEBUG*.log files) and additional sorts to enable sort-by file-size as well as creation-date. |
|||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v1.0.9 | |||||||||||||
Update core-file overwrite to use the Zen Cart v1.5.4 version as its basis. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v1.0.8 | |||||||||||||
Updated the header-message processing introduced in v1.0.7 to just identify that more than 1 log files (myDEBUG-*.log) are present, with a link to the "Display Logs" tool. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: 1.0.7 | |||||||||||||
Just a little tweak to display notification of the error log in Admin Header area. All recognition and thanks to Lat9 and Torvista, I simply put the code together and packaged the update. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v1.0.6 | |||||||||||||
[*]BUGFIX: Delete 'all' no longer functions if used in conjunction with the "CSS Buttons for Admin" plugin [*]BUGFIX; Instructions aren't displayed if the admin is running in SSL mode |
|||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v1.0.5 | |||||||||||||
[*]BUGFIX - USPS shipping logs start with SHIP_usps, not just usps. | |||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v1.0.4 | |||||||||||||
* BUGFIX: Unprintable characters result in blank file display. * BUGFIX: Refreshing page after file delete results in error. |
|||||||||||||
|
|||||||||||||
Display Log Files - Version: v1.0.3 | |||||||||||||
[*]Added missing constant to /YOUR_ADMIN/includes/languages/english/display_logs.php. [*]Modifications to /YOUR_ADMIN/display_logs.php to account for large files. The notifier_trace.log file, for instance, can grow to be enormous if not flushed periodically. [*]BUGFIX: $dir variable close/unset was in the wrong place (/YOUR_ADMIN/display_logs.php). [*]BUGFIX: Needed to convert htmlentities in the loaded file to ensure that any present don't disrupt the file display. |
