Bluemix logging issue to papertrail

Any idea why syslog:// protocol from bluemix app is not connecting to PaperTrail third party logging service?

Here is my process:

  1. create user provided service
  2. bind this service
  3. restage

then on the papertrail nothing happens:

You can try it out. The testing app URL is: http://658.eu-gb.mybluemix.net

Its just Hello world simple nodejs app.

Solution

  • Most likely the configuration is correct but you are not able to see anything on Papertrail because of a problem with Loggregator component; you should setup an application that iteratively writes on the log to see very few lines arriving. In order to clear up the status, this is a general problem between Loggregator and logdrain systems (and Papertrail is one of those) and a fix has been testing and will be applied in the next versions of CloudFoundry.
