Chapter 7. Automation controller logfiles
Automation controller logfiles can be accessed from two centralized locations:
-
/var/log/tower/ -
/var/log/supervisor/
In the /var/log/tower/ directory, you can view logfiles captured by:
- tower.log: Captures the log messages such as runtime errors that occur when the job is executed.
- callback_receiver.log: Captures callback receiver logs that handles callback events when running ansible jobs.
- dispatcher.log: Captures log messages for the automation controller dispatcher worker service.
- job_lifecycle.log: Captures details of the job run, whether it is blocked, and what condition is blocking it.
- management_playbooks.log: Captures the logs of management playbook runs, and isolated job runs such as copying the metadata.
- rsyslog.err: Captures rsyslog errors authenticating with external logging services when sending logs to them.
- task_system.log: Captures the logs of tasks that automation controller is running in the background, such as adding cluster instances and logs related to information gathering or processing for analytics.
- tower_rbac_migrations.log: Captures the logs for rbac database migration or upgrade.
- tower_system_tracking_migrations.log: Captures the logs of the controller system tracking migration or upgrade.
- wsbroadcast.log: Captures the logs of websocket connections in the controller nodes.
In the /var/log/supervisor/ directory, you can view logfiles captured by:
-
awx-callback-receiver.log: Captures the log of callback receiver that handles callback events when running ansible jobs, managed by
supervisord. - awx-daphne.log: Captures the logs of Websocket communication of WebUI.
- awx-dispatcher.log: Captures the logs that occur when dispatching a task to an automation controller instance, such as when running a job.
-
awx-rsyslog.log: Captures the logs for the
rsyslogservice. - awx-uwsgi.log: Captures the logs related to uWSGI, which is an application server.
- awx-wsbroadcast.log: Captures the logs of the websocket service that is used by automation controller.
-
failure-event-handler.stderr.log: Captures the standard errors for
/usr/bin/failure-event-handlersupervisord’s subprocess. -
supervisord.log: Captures the logs related to
supervisorditself. - wsrelay.log: Captures the communication logs within the websocket relay server.
- ws_heartbeat.log: Captures the periodic checks on the health of services running on the host.
- rsyslog_configurer.log: Captures rsyslog configuration activity associated with authenticating with external logging services.
The /var/log/supervisor/ directory includes stdout files for all services as well.
You can expect the following log paths to be generated by services used by automation controller (and Ansible Automation Platform):
- /var/log/nginx/
- /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_log/
- /var/log/redis/
Troubleshooting
Error logs can be found in the following locations:
-
Automation controller server errors are logged in
/var/log/tower. -
Supervisors logs can be found in
/var/log/supervisor/. - Nginx web server errors are logged in the httpd error log.
-
Configure other automation controller logging needs in
/etc/tower/conf.d/.
