<p>I am trying to use logstash to send data from kafka to s3 via logstash, and I am getting an SIGTERM in the logstash process with no apparent error messages.</p>

<p>I am using the following helm template override.yaml file.</p>

<pre><code># overrides stable/logstash helm templates
inputs:
  main: |-
    input {
      kafka{
        bootstrap_servers =&gt;  "kafka.system.svc.cluster.local:9092"
        group_id =&gt; "kafka-s3"
        topics =&gt; "device,message"
        consumer_threads =&gt; 3
        codec =&gt; json { charset =&gt; "UTF-8" }
        decorate_events =&gt; true
      }
    }

# time_file default = 15 minutes
# size_file default = 5242880 bytes
outputs:
  main: |-
    output {
      s3 {
        codec =&gt; "json"
        prefix =&gt; "kafka/%{+YYYY}/%{+MM}/%{+dd}/%{+HH}-%{+mm}"
        time_file =&gt; 5
        size_file =&gt; 5242880
        region =&gt; "ap-northeast-1"
        bucket =&gt; "logging"
        canned_acl =&gt; "private"
      }
    }

<p>my AWS IAM role should be attached to the container via iam2kube.  The role itself allows all actions on S3.</p>

<p>My S3 bucket has a policy as follows:</p>

<pre><code>{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Id": "LoggingBucketPolicy",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "Stmt1554291237763",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Principal": {
                "AWS": "636082426924"
            },
            "Action": "s3:*",
            "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::logging/*"
        }
    ]
}
</code></pre>

<p>The logs for the container are as follows.</p>

<p>Is there anyway to get more detailed logs, or does anyone know what I am dealing with?
I greatly appriciate any help or advice! :no_mouth:</p>

<h1>Problem:</h1>

<p>Looking at the pod details for logstash, I was able to identify the issue.. I an entry similar to the following.</p>

<pre><code>I0414 19:41:24.402257    3338 prober.go:104] Liveness probe for "mypod:mycontainer" failed (failure): Get http://10.168.0.3:80/: dial tcp 10.168.0.3:80: connection refused
</code></pre>

<p>It specified a "connection refused" for liveness probe, and after 50~60 seconds of uptime restarted the pod.</p>

<h1>Cause:</h1>

<p>looking at the liveness probe in the helm chart <code>Values.yaml</code> it shows the following settings.</p>

<pre><code>...

livenessProbe:
  httpGet:
    path: /
    port: monitor
initialDelaySeconds: 20
# periodSeconds: 30
# timeoutSeconds: 30
# failureThreshold: 6
# successThreshold: 1

...
</code></pre>

<p>Only <code>InitialDelaySeconds</code> is set, so the others should be Kubernetes defaults as shown <a href="https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-probes/#configure-probes" rel="noreferrer"><strong>here</strong></a> to the following.</p>

<pre><code># periodSeconds: 10
# timeoutSeconds: 1
# failureThreshold: 1
# successThreshold: 3
</code></pre>

<p>This indicates the following give or take a few seconds:</p>

<pre><code>+------+-----------------------------+
| Time |            Event            |
+------+-----------------------------+
| 0s   | Container created           |
| 20s  | First liveness probe        |
| 21s  | First liveness probe fails  |
| 31s  | Second liveness probe       |
| 32s  | Second liveness probe fails |
| 42s  | Third liveness probe        |
| 43s  | Third liveness probe fails  |
| 44s  | Send SIGTERM to application |
+------+-----------------------------+
</code></pre>

<h1>Solution:</h1>

<p>After some troubleshooting to find the correct <code>InitialDelaySeconds</code> value, I put the following into my <code>override.yaml</code> file to fix the issue.</p>

<pre><code>livenessProbe:
  initialDelaySeconds: 90
</code></pre>

<p>It seems that depending on the plugins being used, Logstash may not respond to HTTP requests for upwards of 100s.</p>
