RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
Feature: Support for gzip, bzip2, and xz compressed files, based on the file extension (.gz, .bz2, .xz) has been added to the access log analysis utility logconv.pl. This also adds support for TAR archives and compressed TAR archives - any file ending in .tar, .tar.bz2, .tar.gz, .tar.xz, .tgz, .tbz, and .txz.

Description Nathan Kinder 2013-12-17 21:48:22 UTC 
This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket:
https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/381

Non-active log files (access, error, audit) which are timestamped should be gzipped.  Files should end in .gz extension.  logconv.pl needs to recognize these files and decompress on the fly.
Comment 3 Rich Megginson 2014-10-23 22:47:49 UTC 
This should be added to the logconv.pl tests

logconv.pl can read from a compressed file or a compressed tar archive.  For example:

$ ls /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-host
access			audit		    errors.20140917-124602
access.20140917-124603	audit.rotationinfo  errors.rotationinfo
access.rotationinfo	errors
$ cd /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-host
$ tar cfj access.tar.bz2 access access.20*
$ ls access.tar.bz2
access.tar.bz2
$ logconv.pl access.tar.bz2
reading .....
....
logconv report
...

The detection is based on the filename.  If the filename ends in .tar, logconv.pl will assume it is an uncompressed tar archive file.  If the filename ends with.tar.bz2 or .tar.gz or .tar.xz or .tgz or .tbz or .txz, logconv.pl will assume it is a compressed tar archive (gz for gzip, bz or bz2 for bzip2, xz for xz).  If the filename ends with .gz or .bz2 or .xz (not preceeded by .tar), logconv.pl will assume is a compressed plain file.
