riakriak-cs

Riak CS cannot start with log.syslog=on

In /etc/riak-cs/riak-cs.conf I've changed

log.syslog=off

to

log.syslog=on

After that

service riak-cs start

returns

18:33:51.427 [error] Error generating configuration in phase apply_translations
18:33:51.428 [error] Translation for 'lager.handlers' expected to find setting 'log.syslog.ident' but was missing

I've added this option in /etc/riak-cs/riak-cs.conf


    log.syslog=on
    log.syslog.ident=riakcs

But after that it gives me

18:18:40.800 [error] Error generating configuration in phase transform_datatypes
18:18:40.800 [error] Conf file attempted to set unknown variable: log.syslog.ident

What am I missing?

Solution

  • Depending Riak CS version, but it seems that you encountered the bug [1]. An workaround to use advanced.config is described in the issue comment [2].

    It will be fixed in the coming releases Riak CS 2.1.0.
