I have had this in my custom TeX-command-list for ages, works fine for me

     ("voir le log" "(lambda () (view-file (TeX-active-master \"log\" t)) 
(flyspell-mode-off))" TeX-run-function nil t :help "Ouvre le log en mode view-mode")

although TeX-command-list did not like a lot being customized
at least some time ago in the distant past and foggy memories

(every few decades I check if I need to incorporate into
TeX-command-list some nice upstream novelties)

not sure if the flyspell-mode-off is needed/useful,

and the log is opened in view-mode mode
