centos – How do I view contents of log files that is too large?
I’ve a huge log file. Worth 403MB.
df -h
command shows that only 8% free space in /home
free -mh
command shows that only 474MB is free and 658MB is available.
How do i view the logs?
I tried.
grep -A500 'string_to_search' application.log_2023-07-13>/tmp/testError.txt
It showed
Binary file application.log_2023-07-13 matches
I tried other variants of grep command as well and they all showed the same output.
How do I view this log file without adding extra hardware and preferably by not deleting extra files.
