Unable to view job output

[Michael Jones]

Hi team,

I recently installed/setup schedulix, and while I've successfully connected a jobserver and built a test job, I'm unable to view the output of said job.

Basically, if I navigate to "Running Master Job", I see my job as finishing "SUCCESS", however there is no icon/button to "Display Logfile". On the server, I see the job's log in my tmp directory (/home/schedulix/tmp), with 664 permissions

schedulix@schedulixdev001:~/tmp$ ls -lh

-rw-rw-r-- 1 schedulix schedulix 591 Jul  7 11:29 1596.log

Any ideas what I might have configured incorrectly here? Thanks for the help.

Hi Michael,

welcome to the schedulix community!

If the logdisplay icon/button is missing, the reason is most likely, that HTTPHOST and/or HTTPPORT is not configured for the jobserver which executed the job.
Those have to be configured on the config tab of the jobserver in the Jobserver and Resources Editor.
Your browser has to reach the server, the jobserver is running on, via HTTPHOST using HTTPPORT.
The jobserver opens the HTTPPORT and serves as a simple http server to deliver the logfile content to the browser.
Do not forget to set a logfile pattern expression on the Logfile Pattern tab of the jobserver in the Jobserver and Resources Editor matching the name of your logfile.
Otherwise the jobserver will refuse to display the output.

Regards
Dieter

That was exactly it, thanks. After reading docs for a couple hours, my eyes start to get blurry ;)
