Http-log plugin not logging every request

gengstrand · January 19, 2019, 9:51pm

I am running into an issue where kong is not logging every request via the http-log plugin. When I tail the kong console log, I see thousands of requests per minute but when I tail the log of the config.http_endpoint service, I see less than 200 requests per minute. I don’t see any "failed request to " errors in the kong log.

I have recently started to encounter this issue this month when I upgraded kong to version 1. I have been using kong for years without incident.

Here is how I am configuring kong with the http-log plugin enabled.

github.com

gengstrand/clojure-news-feed/blob/master/client/load/setup.sh

curl -X PUT http://elasticsearch:9200/performance
curl -i -X POST --url http://kong-proxy:8001/services \
--data 'name=feed' \
--data 'url=http://feed:8080/'
curl -i -X POST --url http://kong-proxy:8001/services/feed/routes \
--data 'methods[]=GET&methods[]=PUT&methods[]=POST&methods[]=OPTIONS'
curl -i -X POST --url http://kong-proxy:8001/plugins \
--data 'name=http-log' \
--data "config.http_endpoint=http://kong-logger:8888" \
--data 'config.method=PUT' \
--data 'config.timeout=1000' \
--data 'config.keepalive=1000'
sleep 30
java -jar /usr/app/load-0.1.0-SNAPSHOT-standalone.jar

Has anyone else here run into this issue?

I had a similar problem, and what problems haven’t been found yet

I ended up replacing Kong (how it was being used) with a 114 line proxy written in golang.
