Server Admin doesn't return logs on query

ChrisMathers — Sat, 11 Dec 2021 14:34:31 GMT

When I query the server logs via POST on the admin page I almost always get the JSON response below. I can't be 100% sure, but in the last 30 minutes I should have at least one debug level log entry on one of the two machines in the site. I will randomly get a set of logs back but its not consistent. I'm doing the query with python. Anyone else get this sort of behavior? Is there a maximum number of queries per minute perhaps? I'm not running this more than once a minute and I get the same response from both the web GUI and the python request.

Query code:

now = datetime.datetime.now()
data = urllib.urlencode({'startTime':now.strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S,%f'),
                         'endTime':(now-datetime.timedelta(seconds = 1800)).strftime('%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S,%f'),
                         'level':'debug',
                         'f':'JSON',
                         'pageSize':1000,
                         'token':token,
                         'filter':{"server": "*",
                                   "services": "*",
                                   "machines":"*" }
                        })
request = urllib2.Request(logsURL,data, headers)
response = urllib2.urlopen(request)

Average response:

{
  "hasMore": false,
  "startTime": 0,
  "endTime": 0,
  "logMessages": []
}

I figured it out. It the server taking time to return the logs. If I make a query and just poll the site one a second for 10 seconds it picks it up consistently.

runs = 0
while runs != 10:
    response = urllib2.urlopen(request)
    logs = json.load(response)['logMessages']
    if logs == []:
        time.sleep(1)
        runs += 1
    else:
        #some logic here

        break
