WebLogic message does not have authorization to view the logs

I was using JMX to display the connectionPool statistics  from webLogic, and kept getting messages

<Error> <Diagnostics> <BEA-320084> <The user principals=[] does not have authorization to view the logs.>

I solved this by using the webLogic console

• Click “Security Realms” in the Domain Stucture box on the left hand side of the home page
• Click on the name of your realm (myrealm)
• Click on “Roles and Policies”
• Click on “Realm Policies”
• Expand Domain and select “View Policy Conditions” for “View Log”
• Click on Add Condition
• Select the role
• Click on Finish
• Click on Save

The change is available immediately on “Save”.
