Description rakesh-gm 2015-11-03 10:21:30 UTC

when substituted log_path in this "api/v2/server/<fqdn>/log/<log_path>" with "lastlog" and "wtmp", we get 500 Server Error.  (the usage is explained with example in the below mentioned link) 

for example "/api/v2/server/<fqdn>/log/lastlog " and "/api/v2/server/<fqdn>/log/wtmp". 


the usage is described here
 http://calamari.readthedocs.org/en/latest/calamari_rest/resources/resources.html#logtailviewset

Comment 2 Christina Meno 2015-11-04 05:34:20 UTC

does it work for any log?
please include logs from calamari as described here:

Comment 4 rakesh-gm 2015-11-04 15:12:45 UTC

yes it works other logs.

Comment 5 Christina Meno 2015-11-04 17:54:16 UTC

wtmp and lastlog are binary formats


We won't be able to show these without filtering them through /usr/bin/last

I think the correct behavior is to error with a more helpful message and improve the docs to list this as unsupported.
