I have a text file (log file) that I want to be able to read the last 30 or
40 lines of. I've created the code below, but since this file is so large
(currently 8 MB) it won't work. The code works on smaller files, but not
this one. Can someone look at this below and tell me where I went wrong?
<?php
$filename ="/var/log/radius.log";
$myFile = fopen($filename, "r"); //open the file for reading, file pointer
will be at the beginning of the file
if(! $myFile){ // Make sure the file was opened successfully
print ("File could not be opened.");
exit;
}
$fcontents = file($filename);
$limit = 30;
for ($i = 0; $i < $limit; $i++){ // while $i is less than 30
$line = $fcontents[$i]; // assign value of array element to a variable
if($line != ""){ // if the line from the file is not blank print it
echo "$line \n";
}
}
fclose($myFile);
?>
Thanks,
Scott Miller
