Kibana log files

[jchannon]

I've left our docker container running doing nothing for a few days and found out that Kibana had stopped. I'm not sure why which is worrying. I see by default Kibana doesnt log errors to a file by default on v4.

Is it worth telling it to on the dockerfile a bit like you've done for logstash so it writes to /var/log/kibana?

kibana -l /var/log/kibana

Yes, sounds like a great idea, will push an update in just a bit.
(Oh, and do let me know if you find out why Kibana stops unexpectedly.)

Thanks, have pulled the image and fired it up. For now I see HTTP request logs in the kibana log file, lets hope it logs something if it falls over

[jchannon]

Kibana has gone down, the logs only seem to show http requests though so I'm a bit in the dark. Any ideas where to look?

Maybe linked to this? elastic/kibana#5764

Yep, reminded me of this one as well (which is solved, so I should probably try to reproduce and adjust the memory parameters accordingly): elastic/kibana#5170

[jchannon]

I put the output of docker stats in that issue, not sure if that helps you?

With kibana not running and everything else idle its still using 26% memory which is interesting
