Parasitic characters in output #269

Open StefThomas opened 1 year ago

StefThomas commented 1 year ago

Hi,

This problem happens randomly after the agent restarts, with any plugin. For example, it can trigger a false warning about two processes being present, while only one is. When this happens, I notice parasitic characters in the output, as in the example below:

PROCS WARNING: 2 processes with regex args 'standalone' | procs=2;$▒2V$;1:2;0;

Restarting the agent always resolves the issue, but it’s still annoying as it leads to false alerts.

It happens with version 4.0.3 (on RHEL 7) as with 4.1.0 (on RHEL 8)

I activated the debug mode on one of our server and I’m waiting the problem to happen again. Meanwhile, I’m posting this issue to see if anyone has a clue.

Regards.
