Face It Yourselves: An LLM-Based Two-Stage Strategy to Localize Configuration Errors via Logs

arXiv:2404.00640v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: Configurable software systems are prone to configuration errors, resulting in significant losses to companies. However, diagnosing these errors is challenging due to the vast and complex configuration space. These errors pose significant challenges for both experienced maintainers and new end-users, particularly those without access to the source code of the software systems. Given that logs are easily accessible to most end-users, we conduct a preliminary study to outline the challenges and opportunities of utilizing logs …
