On Lawn's Journal: Ask {/.}: Instant Replay for Web Servers

Anyone know of a utility that will read through Apache logs, and then simulate that activity (i.e. replay) to help debug issues?

A few.

There's a script by Jeremiah (Jeremy) Orem called log_replay. I haven't been able to locate it tho'.

Thanks.

I knew there was something out there, but for some reason Google wasn't finding it for me. Its been a long time since Google let me down.

Let me know wot any of this works!

Would this work?

[FroMan]

cat logfile | sed -r 's/.*?GET ([^ ]+) .*/\1/' | xargs -n1 wget

You could setup your wget to use cookies too if you wanted. If you needed a sleep or pause between them that could be implemented too.

Thanks!

I am looking for something that sticks with the general timing also. But if that works it can do quite a bit of good for me.
