let me see now... you don't want to look at 17,000 lines but I should?

Why don't you take this as an opportunity to learn how to solve
problems? For example, how to use logs to troubleshoot...

run as root

echo "----- \n Marking my place in the logs \n -----" \
 >> /var/log/secure
echo "----- \n Marking my place in the logs \n -----" \
 >> /var/log/messages

then try to login

then look at the logs - after the marks you just made.
