Description of problem: Customer reports: Latest application logs in one specific pod are not showing/loading in console but available when checking through CLI (oc logs <pod_name>) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): OpenShift 3.11.x How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run application that sends 300k character long log messages 2. Look at pod logs in admin console 3. Look at pod logs in oc logs cli Actual results: - Admin console doesn't show updated logs - oc logs cli shows up-to-the-minute logs Expected results: - Same behavior Additional info:
Is there an explicit character limitation for logging in the console? What additional information can I provide to determine if this is an expected failure or something we need to address? All other pods and logging is normal, just this one with the long logs.
There is no limitation for the character count. It's most probably due to the enormous character count for a single line. Since there is a workaround, by using the CLI, we won't be fixing this cause the 3.11 is in maintenance mode.
Hey Christopher, There's no artificial per-log-message character limitation encoded in the entire log handling facility of OpenShift, so the issue is most likely in underlying technology. > Jakub, 3.11 is in Full support until 2021 per this link [1]. Am I misreading this? That is true, but that only stands for Security issues, which this is not. If there is anything else I can clarify feel free to add a comment, otherwise I will close this issue in following days.
