How can I parse Apache's error log in PHP?

Question

I want to create a script that parses or makes sense of apache\'s error log to see what the most recent error was. I was wondering if anyone out there has something that doe

Answer 1

for anyone else looking for a sample script, i threw something together, it's got the basics:

handleError() /home/gsmcms/public_html/central/cake/libs/debugger.php:0
        preg_match('~^\[(.*?)\]~', $line, $date);
        if(empty($date[1])) {
            continue;
        }
        preg_match('~\] \[([a-z]*?)\] \[~', $line, $type);
        preg_match('~\] \[client ([0-9\.]*)\]~', $line, $client);
        preg_match('~\] (.*)$~', $line, $message);
        ?>
    

    

        
Date
        
Type
        
Client
        
Message
