How to view buildLog.msg5 file?

Hello.  Our TeamCity database recently crashed and we lost all capability to view build history from the web UI.  We have the build artifacts in-tact.  I need to review an older build's log file and found the buildLog.msg5 file in the artifacts folder.  How do I view this file format?  I would love to mimic TeamCity's web view (with collapsible sections and timing information) if possible.

Hi Jeff,

 

sorry for the delay. We use this format internally. We can dump it into a text file if you need, but there might be an easier workaround. Simply have a build run, go into the build artifacts folder, replace the log with the new one, and the Web UI should be able to show you the old build log as if it was the new one (it might require the server to restart, though)
