TraceFix — I built a tool that diagnoses Linux log errors and tells you the exact fix
Hey Product Hunt,
I built TraceFix after spending way too many hours on log errors that turned out to have a one-command fix — I just didn't know what I was looking at.
What it does: You paste a Linux, SSH, systemd, or nginx log. It tells you the root cause, explains what went wrong, and gives you the exact command to fix it. No prompts, no back and forth.
Why I built it: Every engineer I know has lost an hour to "Permission denied (publickey)" or "Failed to start service." The error is always the same. The fix is always the same. But you still end up Googling for 20 minutes. I wanted a tool that skips that entirely.
Where it's at: Launched 2 days ago. Already getting traffic from HackerNews, LinkedIn, and Google. 6 people have used the analyzer. Free to use, no account needed.
What I'm trying to figure out:
Is this useful enough that engineers would pay $19/month for unlimited analyses?
What log types are missing that you'd want covered?
What would make you come back after the first use?
Would love honest feedback from this community — especially from anyone who deals with Linux/DevOps logs regularly.
Try it: tracefix.vercel.app
