Log Management

[charlesnw]

Hello all.

I have a Debian 12 VM running librenms and syslog-ng. All of my systems (other than Cloudron) send all their logs (vis rsyslog) to it.

I would like to feed all the Cloudron OS/docker logs to that server. Having a proper/supported/GUI way todo so would be very nice.

Also (for those who don't have a syslog server) logrotate/logwatch support would be good as well.

By the way, for these requests, I am happy to help hack on them, test them out etc.

I thought logrotate is implemented by default ?

Logrotate is implemented by default with Cloudron, however I think the feature request is to be able to configure Cloudron to send logs to a logcollector, in this case some other debian server?

Hello @charlesnw
Please add a detailed description to your feature request so the staff and community can get a fast and clear understanding on what is required.

Here is what I'm thinking. Keep in mind I have no knowledge of how the Cloudron core works.

In the Cloudron UI, somewhere in settings , add a form which lets me set an IP address or hostname for a syslog target.

In the Cloudron back end, configure the /etc/rsyslog.conf.d/<custom.conf> or /etc/syslog-ng equiv to set *.* to that hostname/IP

For now, I would be happy to just have the system (OS) logs coming to my syslog collector. Ideally it would also get all the dockers logs as well.
