logger_level at NONE cliupdate.php issues DEBUG output

[PresGas]

I am hosting a selfoss 2.18 installation on nearlyfreespeech.net. When I set the logger_level to NONE, cron outputs for the cliupdate.php seem to default to DEBUG. All the other options for logger_level run at the appropriate levels.

My cron line is like so:

/usr/local/bin/php7.2 /home/public/cliupdate.php

Let me know if you need other info.

Hmm, apparently Monolog uses a fallback handler when we do not add any handlers: https://github.com/Seldaek/monolog/blob/4d5b7e6ba1127789c7ff59d6f762298eaa29787f/src/Monolog/Logger.php#L294-L296

This is fixed in 2395a12, thank you for reporting this.

Awesome and thank you for the fast turnaround!

Any "rough" target dates for 2.19 release?

We are blocked on #1014 and I am not sure when I will have large enough time window to debug the two remaining issues so I am unable to give any time frame.

However, the development builds are usually more reliable than stable releases since they include many bug fixes; I would recommend you to just use https://bintray.com/fossar/selfoss/download_file?file_path=selfoss-2.19-a5841a5.zip

Oddly I'm seeing the same behavior with the latest stable version 2.19. Updated today, and the servers HD has been filling like crazy (caught it at 99% and a log file of 8 GB, even though logger_level is set to NONE).

Sample from the logs...

[2023-03-28 23:15:02] selfoss.DEBUG: set cookie on www.XXXXXXXX.com/news/ expiring in 2592000 seconds [2023-03-28 23:15:02] selfoss.DEBUG: session does not contain valid auth [2023-03-28 23:15:03] selfoss.DEBUG: Creating database connection {"dsn":"mysql:host=localhost; port=3306; dbname=XXXXXXXX_db"} [2023-03-28 23:15:03] selfoss.DEBUG: Establishing MySQL database connection [2023-03-28 23:15:03] selfoss.DEBUG: ---

Seems like more or less the entire feed content is ending up in the logs, too.

@GutHib just to double check, what do you see if you modify selfoss as follows:

--- a/src/common.php
+++ b/src/common.php
@@ -48,6 +48,7 @@ $f3->set('BASEDIR', BASEDIR);
 
 $configuration = new Configuration(__DIR__ . '/../config.ini', $_ENV);
 
+var_dump($configuration->loggerLevel, $configuration->debug);
 $f3->set('DEBUG', $configuration->debug);
 $f3->set('cache', $configuration->cache);
 

Do you have this line in your src/common.php?

selfoss/src/common.php

Lines 244 to 245 in 3858ad4

	if ($configuration->loggerLevel === 'NONE') {
	$handler = new NullHandler();

[GutHib]

• Lines 244 & 245 are in place.
• Changing the logging from "NONE" to "ERROR" will fix the problem.
• With logging set to "NONE" and the extra var_dump line it will continue. Or do you want me to check if the content of the log file is any different?

var_dump line should print the values in the browser to make sure it is not being overridden somehow.

[GutHib]

The output is:

string(0) "" int(0)

...when set to "NONE". When set to "ERROR", it is:

string(5) "ERROR" int(0)

[GutHib]

Works now after putting 'NONE' in single quotes.

I noticed the same with the password, had to put it in (single) quotes after the update.

@GutHib Oh, I forgot this was an issue. That was fixed with ba93393.
