Abstract: A server digital data processor includes an application server providing an execution environment in which a web application comprising a plurality of classes or functions (collectively, “classes”) executes. The application server or execution environment generate a log file entry identifying an error in connection with execution of a class and store that message to a log file. A log file viewer executing on the server digital data processor augments the log file entry to include a link or other reference to a source file in a repository maintained on a remote workstation or server containing source code to the offending class and application version.
