v0.9.9 — Logs

Logs

New Logs section — browse, read, and live-tail log files and systemd journals directly in the web UI.

Features

File browser

• Lazy-expanding tree of `/var/log` (subdirectories load on click)
• Click any file to read its last 500 lines instantly
• All paths restricted to `/var/log` via symlink-safe `safePath` validation

Live tail

• Click ▶ Follow on any open file to stream new lines in real-time via Server-Sent Events
• Uses `tail -n 50 -F` — handles log rotation automatically
• Pulsing ● live indicator while streaming
• Auto-scroll pauses when you scroll up; resumes when you reach the bottom

Systemd journal

• Lists all systemd service units with color-coded status dots (active=green, inactive=grey, failed=red)
• Filter box to search units by name or description
• Click any unit to stream its journal live via `journalctl -fu`
• Section hidden automatically on non-systemd systems

Log viewer

• Keyword-based line coloring: error/fatal/crit = red, warn = yellow, debug = muted
• Filter bar to search within loaded lines
• 2000-line ring buffer cap with indicator
• Line count footer

Bug fixes

• Fixed session persistence on existing installations — databases created before v0.9.8 had a `webux_sessions` schema mismatch (`user_id` vs `username`) that caused every session to fail silently, forcing re-login on every page refresh and leaving the dashboard stats and Security Hardening widget blank
• `make release` and `make release-full` now depend on the `web` target, ensuring cross-compiled binaries always embed the latest frontend
