Description Yedidyah Bar David 2020-05-14 06:23:07 UTC

Description of problem:

ansible-runner-service.log is in /var/lib/ovirt-engine, although it's a log file and should probably be in /var/log/ovirt-engine, or /var/log/ovirt-engine/ansible-runner-service .

This breaks engine-backup if it's running while a host is being deployed, with:

tar: var/lib/ovirt-engine/ansible-runner-service.log: file changed as we read it

I currently pushed a patch to make engine-backup exclude it, but it makes sense to move it.

Comment 1 Martin Perina 2020-05-14 06:52:17 UTC

Unfortunately right now we have 2 logs:

 /var/lib/ovirt-engine/ansible-runner-service.log
 /var/log/httpd/ansible_runner_error_log

So we need to perform following actions:

1. Move ansible-runner-service.log from /var/lib/ovirt-engine to /var/log

2. Setup logrotate configuration on both logs

Comment 3 RHEL Program Management 2020-06-26 17:35:53 UTC

Target release should be placed once a package build is known to fix a issue. Since this bug is not modified, the target version has been reset. Please use target milestone to plan a fix for a oVirt release.

Comment 4 Martin Necas 2020-06-29 10:08:53 UTC

I have removed the logging to /var/log/httpd/ansible_runner_error_log so it is possible that you have it from the previous build.
Also, the httpd has it's own logrotate at /etc/logrotate.d/httpd

Comment 5 Pavol Brilla 2020-07-08 15:55:26 UTC

# cat /etc/logrotate.d/httpd 
/var/log/httpd/*log {
    missingok
    notifempty
    sharedscripts
    delaycompress
    postrotate
        /bin/systemctl reload httpd.service > /dev/null 2>/dev/null || true
    endscript
}
