Changing file from pod is not included successfully in the support bundle

[mihai-waydev]

Bug Description

When trying to get a file from a pod that is constantly changing, it fails randomly

Expected Behavior

The file should be in the support bundle with it contents at the moment it was retrieved.

Steps To Reproduce

Generate a support bundle that should copy a file from the pod that is constantly changing.

Additional Context

We can’t get that file and instead we get this one file called “laravel.log-errors.json” with the following contents:

{
“/var/www/html/storage/logs/laravel.log/error”: “failed to stream command output: command terminated with exit code 1”,
“/var/www/html/storage/logs/laravel.log/stderr”: “tar: laravel.log: file changed as we read it\n”
}

Spec:

apiVersion: troubleshoot.replicated.com/v1beta1
kind: Collector
metadata:
name: collector-sample
spec:
collectors:

• clusterInfo: {}
• clusterResources: {}
• logs:
  collectorName: app-logs
  name: app/logs
  selector:
• component=comp
• copy:
  name: pod-logs
  selector:
• app=workers
  containerPath: /var/www/html/storage/logs/laravel.log

Troubleshoot version: 0.83.0
OS: Ubuntu 20 (I think it happens on various other OS as well like RHEL 9.3)
