jaikiran Feb 23, 2012 12:01 PM (in response to gonne)Sorry I don't understand the question. You posted the read resource output which shows the access-log configuration but you also mention that you couldn't configure it via CLI. What error are you runing into and what command are you using?

3. Re: Add access-log via jboss-cli ?
gonne Feb 24, 2012 6:14 AM (in response to jaikiran)Sorry for my unclear question.
I have managed to activate access-log by editing standalone.xml:
{code:xml}
<subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:1.1" native="false" default-virtual-server="default-host">
<connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http"/>
<virtual-server name="default-host" enable-welcome-root="true">
<alias name="localhost"/>
<alias name="example.com"/>
<access-log>
<directory relative-to="jboss.server.log.dir"/>
</access-log>
</virtual-server>
</subsystem>
{code}
But I want to configure it with a CLI command to build a configuration script with my configuration changes. I had no success with my tries to build the correct syntax.
Kind regards,
Gonne

4. Re: Add access-log via jboss-cli ?
alexh_97 Mar 19, 2012 4:44 PM (in response to gonne)This is a very good question - I'm in the same boat. I can get to what looks like an appropriate subsystem:
[standalone@localhost:9999 /] cd /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host
[standalone@localhost:9999 virtual-server=default-host] ls
access-log rewrite
sso alias=["localhost","example.com"]
default-web-module=ROOT.war enable-welcome-root=true
and even
[standalone@localhost:9999 virtual-server=default-host] cd access-log
[standalone@localhost:9999 access-log] pwd
/subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log
but it's unclear what one can do from here. Command help is not "helpful":
[standalone@localhost:9999 access-log] help --commands
Commands available in the current context:
batch cd clear command
connect data-source deploy deployment-info
help history ls pwd
quit read-attribute read-operation undeploy
version xa-data-source
To read a description of a specific command execute 'command_name --help'.

For "raw" operations, i.e. not commands, read-resource-description is what you want: https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS71/Admin+Guide#AdminGuide-The%7B%7Breadresourcedescription%7D%7Doperation
e.g.
/subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host:read-resource-description(operations=true, inherited=false)

Kabir,
This is a bit more helpful, but again, there doesn't seem to be a way to modify an existing virtual host. The only operations that are listed are "remove" and "add". Does this mean you need to remove the existing host and then re-add it with new attributes?

8. Re: Add access-log via jboss-cli ?
kabirkhan Mar 19, 2012 6:34 PM (in response to alexh_97)I'm not too familiar with the web subsystem but seems the access log is at the address: /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log. Since that resource is empty you'd typically execute 'add' to add it.
So first let's look for it:
[standalone@localhost:9999 /] /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log=configuration:read-operation-names
{
"outcome" => "success",
"result" => [
"add",
"read-attribute",
"read-children-names",
"read-children-resources",
"read-children-types",
"read-operation-description",
"read-operation-names",
"read-resource",
"read-resource-description",
"remove",
"undefine-attribute",
"whoami",
"write-attribute"
]
}
It's there, let's see what it expects:
[standalone@localhost:9999 /] /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log=configuration:read-operation-description(name=add)
{
"outcome" => "success",
"result" => {
"operation-name" => "add",
"description" => "Add access log configuration to this virtual server.",
"request-properties" => {
"pattern" => {
"type" => STRING,
"description" => "The access log pattern.",
"expressions-allowed" => false,
"required" => false,
"nillable" => true,
"min-length" => 1L,
"max-length" => 2147483647L
},
"rotate" => {
"type" => BOOLEAN,
"description" => "Rotate the access log every day.",
"expressions-allowed" => false,
"required" => false,
"nillable" => true
},
"prefix" => {
"type" => STRING,
"description" => "Prefix for the log file name.",
"expressions-allowed" => false,
"required" => false,
"nillable" => true,
"min-length" => 1L,
"max-length" => 2147483647L
},
"extended" => {
"type" => BOOLEAN,
"description" => "Enable extended pattern, with more options.",
"expressions-allowed" => false,
"required" => false,
"nillable" => true
},
"resolve-hosts" => {
"type" => BOOLEAN,
"description" => "Host resolution.",
"expressions-allowed" => false,
"required" => false,
"nillable" => true
}
},
"reply-properties" => {},
"read-only" => false
}
}
So something like at least adds it to the model
[standalone@localhost:9999 /] /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log=configuration:add(pattern=aaaa,prefix=bbb,resolve-hosts=true,rotate=false,extended=false)
{"outcome" => "success"}
And it can be read
[standalone@localhost:9999 /] /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log=configuration:read-resource(recursive=true)
{
"outcome" => "success",
"result" => {
"directory" => undefined,
"extended" => false,
"pattern" => "aaaa",
"prefix" => "bbb",
"resolve-hosts" => true,
"rotate" => false
}
}
Exactly what I added I am not sure :-) To change values of an existing resource, if the attribute is read-write you can execute write-attribute, e.g.
[standalone@localhost:9999 /] /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log=configuration:write-attribute(name=extended, value=true)
{
"outcome" => "success",
"response-headers" => {
"operation-requires-reload" => true,
"process-state" => "reload-required"
}
}

9. Re: Add access-log via jboss-cli ?
ssilvert Mar 19, 2012 7:08 PM (in response to kabirkhan)If you use the CLI GUI you wil see the help text that comes from read-opearation-description. So you just right-click on a node and you get all the operations. From there you can hover over an operation and see its help description. Then if you select an operation you will get a dialog. For each param in the dialog you can hover to see the help description of the param. Fill in the form and you've got your fully-formatted command that you can submit.

alexh_97 Mar 19, 2012 8:45 PM (in response to kabirkhan)Kabir,
This is great - thank you!
Just for reference, here's some info on the virtual-host configuration options: http://docs.jboss.org/jbossweb/7.0.x/config/host.html
Unfortunately, the link to the access logging documentation within there seems to be broken, but seems like it could be found here: http://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/AccessLogValve

11. Re: Add access-log via jboss-cli ?
kabirkhan Mar 20, 2012 5:39 AM (in response to alexh_97)The cli stuff is our layer on top of the tomcat config. Under the hood you'll end up with something similar to the snippet you showed me going on but from the AS point of view you need to do this via standalone.xml or cli. Our docs are at http://www.jboss.org/jbossas/docs/7-x.html, although they seem to be missing the access log part. I'll ask someone who knows about that to fill it in.
What you can do for now is get it working via xml, and then view the output of /subsystem=web/virtual-server=default-host/access-log=configuration:read-resource(recursive=true). If you can't figure out what values to add for the add operation from that post here, and similarly if you can please post what you used.
