After Ubuntu 22/24 Upgrade syslog getting spammed and grows way to much clogging up the diskspace

@SansGuidon thanks for the repro. I have to say I can easily reproduce not only your test but also uptime kuma backup issue on my test Cloudron. At the same time, I have verified that @joseph's observation is also correct - our prod uptime kuma does not produce any spurious logs. Wonder what is going on... I am debugging.

@SansGuidon What is your ubuntu and docker version?

That Cloudron is on Ubuntu 20.04 and docker 27.3.1 . Here it's not reproducible.

My test cloudron is on 24.04 and docker 28.1.1 (it's from dev branch). Here it's reproducible.

[SansGuidon]

@girish Docker 27.3.1 and Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS

@SansGuidon thanks, fixed in https://git.cloudron.io/platform/box/-/commit/e45af9b611f4d0c3b77d4329aac24bacf98e4e6c . I could not figure out why it's not reproducible on that old Cloudron but I can reproduce it everywhere else . Maybe some Ubuntu 20.04 quirk .

Nice! thanks @girish

Can you guide me what commands to type? Thank you.

Hello @zohup
This is fixed in Cloudron Version 9.

I think what @zohup was asking is how to fix this in production environments which are still running Cloudron Version 8.

[zohup]

yes there it is, and it seems like that's the only way to fix it
