How Can I View Glassfish Logs on Intellij Idea

Question

I am working on making the switch from Netbeans to Intellij Idea . One thing I miss from Netbeans is the ability to view the Glassfish server logs in real-time in the IDE. It seems like with Idea I need to go out to the file system and tail them.

Is there another way that I am missing?

Answer 1

Additional server logs can be added in the "Logs tab of the Glassfish Run/Debug configuration"

Answer 2

This worked for me:-

1. Go to the "Run/Debug Configuration" section
2. Go to "Logs" tab
3. Click on the "+" icon
4. Enter "Alias" name and enter the server log file location associated on the "Log File Location" section

Answer 3

GlassFish log is available in the Services window, when you click on a running deployment, and then click the GlassFish Log tab in the right part of the window:
