Anyone knows of a good error log beautifier? (should be able to handle apache error logs).

Should be open source / free, preferably with a web interface

I use http://www.librelogiciel.com/software/ScanErrLog/action_Presentation It runs through the error log producing a summary webpage, or some other formats. While it's best run from a regular cron-job (and it will keep a record of what it's parsed before to save effort), it can also be run as a CGI (though the demo appears to be broken).

I don't want statistics, I want the actual error log - but in formatted display, broken into columns etc

You can see a sample report generated using Analog and Report Magic at this address: http://www.reportmagic.org/sample/index.html. The Failure Report is simple, but is a starting point.

I use Webalizer to process my website's logs. Its web-interface might be a bit dated but it's very powerful, reliable and can handle very large logs. It's also quite easy to set up which a big plus in my book as you don't want to be worrying about the software, you just want to visualise the data.
