Description

I am trying to reduce the verbosity of masterhttp.log by adding the option ‘rails_loglevel = err’ to the main section of puppet.conf (I tried also puppetd and puppetmasterd for that matter). However when I run:

puppet --configprint rails_loglevel

It keeps saying ‘info’ regardless of that I pass in the config file. I looked at puppet init scripts thinking that it would get overwritten, but that does not seem to be the case. I can’t seem to find a way to change the log level, as the master keeps printing pretty much every thing it can.

Is there any way I can tune the log level down? Is this a bug or a misconfiguration?

The rails_loglevel is unrelated to masterhttp.log. The Rails log level is used for the Rails ORM which is mostly used for Stored Configurations.

I don’t think the current masterhttplog file’s verbosity can be configured but I will check.

Is there any information I can provide from my side?

Okay I checked there isn’t a way to change the verbosity of the logging.

It would be simple to add:

  1. Add an option in lib/puppet/defaults.rb for masterhttploglevel or something better named.
  2. Edit the httplog method in lib/puppet/network/http_server/webrick.rb.
  3. Then add a test in spec/unit/network/http/webrick_spec.rb
