Hey guys, yet another admin utility! Admins be joyous with your new toys! \o/ This one might be useful as we tend to see lots of issues arising from Asterisk in the ViCi stack so yeah...simple enough...it will show you the Asterisk log and you can show/hide warnings, errors and stuff. Copying to clipboard and downloading to file are possible. Added some system information too so that ViCi support vendors will have some information and speed up resolution times. I'm tempted to add more information here...would need your steer Matt what common information helps us when diagnosing Asterisk problems. Feedback as always is welcome and appreciated :)

This is exactly why we added the "Asterisk Debug Page" to the Admin Utilities years ago, although the one that is currently part of VICIdial limits the output to the last 1000 lines of output.

Just like with the log viewer page, are there any size restrictions on this? The Asterisk logs can get huge on a system that doesn't reboot regularly.

Ah yeah there is no size limit at the minute...I would hope ViCi admins are rotating these logs. I can add rudimentary checks for potentially large log files and just flat out refuse to display the log or just parts of it. :)
