InfluxDB generating a lot of Journalctl log entries

Installed InfluxDB a while ago. Working well from the queries I have applied to the DB. I had a need to check ‘journalctl’ for a different issue with the /var/log zram file system being full (that is now fixed I am pleased to report) but found a lot of messages in the log that pertain to what I assume are DB posts from Openhab to Influxdb. Seems a lot of messages to me and the log is swamped by them. I can confirm these persist over a reboot and I seem to be getting about five or so messages per second.

It does not seem to cause any problems but I thought it would be best to ask as I am a novice and want to make sure I am doing the right thing.

My setup is:
Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Kernel = Linux 5.10.63-v7l+
Platform = Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.1RPi 4
openHAB 3.2.0
My persist file for InfluxDB is:

Strategies {
everyMinute : "0 * * * * ?"
everyHour : "0 0 * * * ?"
everyDay : "0 0 0 * * ?"
every2Minutes : "0 */2 * ? * *"
}
 
Items {
*: strategy = everyChange
}

The following is a snippet from my journalctl output:

Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated.

In File /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf change row that contains

# level = "info"

to

level = "warn"

Then do

sudo systemctl restart influxdb

The above described change changs the loglevel from info to warn. In case even that would be too verbose ( which does not look like it would be the case ) then change to error instead of warn.

Thanks @Wolfgang_S,

I changed the /etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf file as you suggested but unfortunately no change in journalctl output.

I tried both “warn” and “error” followed each time buy “sudo systemctl restart influxdb”.

I note that the messages are tagged with “influxd-systemd-start.sh”. Not sure if this is indicative of anything.

Any further help would be much appreciated.

I changed the setting myself before writting.
Also had the influxd-systemd-start.sh entries before changing the log level.
Would you mind to either upload your etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf config file or sent a PM with the file’s content ?

Thanks again,

The conf file is attached. No issue with sharing it with all.

influxdb.conf.log (21.1 KB)
(please ignore the ‘log’ extension. Just my Mac pretending to protect me!)

I also did a search from root just to make sure that was the only reference for this file on my system.

Maybe you can try to add in:
/etc/influxdb/influxdb.conf
[http] section

[http]
log-enabled = false

and restart influx service

did a diff between your file and my file. The only difference is the log level error vs. warn.
So I would expect it to work.
The version that I have here is 1.8.10-1.
Which version is installed at your side ? You can check it with dpkg -l influxdb

might be an option but I would expect that even errors will not be shown then.

AFAIK it has nothing to do with application level logs. It only disables HTTP request logging. And it was the main issue of Ian.

Hi @Wolfgang_S,

I am running: 1.8.10-1 as well. I also tried all different log levels to see if that had an effect (warn, error etc) but unfortunately nothing changed in the journalctl output when I gave it a try a day or so ago.

I did try @kristofejro solution and this has turned off all logging of influxdb to journalctl. I would prefer to not turn off all logging for obvious reasons but this will do for now (I think).

It is strange that it turned off all logging.
When I try:

journalctl -u influxdb.service -f

there is some logging going on.

Maybe you still have level = "warn" ?

My apologies @kristofejro,

You are correct. Journalctl is showing a smaller amount of log messages. I will have a play with the log levels to see if this changes anything.

Thank you and @Wolfgang_S for your kind help with this one.

Cheers Ian

Just to make sure in case there is some misunderstanding.
journalctl shows the history up to a certain level.
If you change the logging of influxdb the history before applying the change still may be shown but there should not be any new logging be added.

Good to check @Wolfgang_S, Confirming I was observing new messages being added to the log at that time.
