Container hangs on log rotate

[kigsmtua]

When logrotate is configured with the copy truncate option enabled , The sumologic container stops shipping logs

This though works on earlier versions of docker

Any help on this ?

Hi @kigsmtua , thank you for reporting the issue. What version of Docker are you using currently? We have seen this issue before and it is a Docker bug moby/moby#23913 that should be fixed in Docker 1.13

Hi @maimaisie this on Docker version 17.03.2-ce, build 7392c3b/17.03.2-ce

And which collector version are you on? Can you confirm you have not upgraded/downgraded collector before the issue started and the only change is the Docker version?

One thing I would suggest is to use the latest collector image to get all the bug fixes in collector. If you are already on latest version, we will need some logs from the collector to do further investigations. To get the collector logs:

1. Open a bash shell with the running collector container
   docker exec -ti <container_id or name> /bin/bash
2. Find the log file located at /opt/SumoCollector/logs/collector.log
3. You can then upload this file to this thread and our engineers will inspect the logs
