Same problem... In the logging page don load anything, only the mooving circle

[sbr9150]

Check this out . It works for me.
dont die when we cant decipher the logging time #53

[asoliverez]

That's not the solution in my case. It throws an exception when trying to open the log file, not when parsing a time.

[polcape]

Yes, I am solved the issue with the modify proposed.

I have the same problem and it started after I set Nextcloud to log to the syslog. If the logreader is not capable of displaying syslog-entries, and I could live with that, it should display a message instead of "loading" forever.

Same problem here after a distro upgrade from Debian 8 (jessy) to 9 (stretch). Maybe the updated PHP version? Don't know.

[mritzmann]

Maybe your nextcloud.log is to big? #719

[joshtrichards]

It's because you've changed your log_type to syslog. The log reader only supports the default log_type (file).

[jdaviescoates]

#866 doesn't seem to do anything on Nextcloud 27.1.3

The logging page just spins forever and no error message is shown.
