No space left on device

[aukfood]

What happened?

When I start to run crowdsec I have these error

time="2024-02-02T16:22:43+01:00" level=error msg="error in stop : no space left on device" type=file

What did you expect to happen?

A normal start of crowdsec :)

How can we reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?

We add acquisition for all apache log of all web site

---
filenames:
  - /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/access*
  - /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/error*
labels:
  type: apache2

Anything else we need to know?

Did you try the steps of expanding the inotify limit?

How many files do you have within folders? because what is the value of monitoring really old files that wont be written too again?

[aukfood]

@LaurenceJJones yes I try this : https://discourse.crowdsec.net/t/problem-config-for-acquisition/1257/4

With 8192 and

fs.inotify.max_user_instances=16384

And same error.

I have more than 13594 files :

# ls -la /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/ |wc -l
13594

[aukfood]

@LaurenceJJones there is another solution ?

[LaurenceJJones]

@LaurenceJJones there is another solution ?

Not really, reduce the amount of logs that match the globing pattern as CrowdSec is monitoring old files that will never be used.

[LaurenceJJones]

Unless @blotus has anymore ideas?

[aukfood]

yes I think I have to modify my acquisition to match the daily file and not old files

[aukfood]

@LaurenceJJones it's possible in acquisition to have this format ?

filenames:
  - /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/access.%Y.%m.%d
  - /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/error.%Y.%m.%d

[blotus]

Hello @aukfood,

Can you try to increase more (at least double) the max amount of user watches ?

You have around 13k files, but crowdsec will also add a watch on each file by default to get notified where there's a new line (you can disable this behavior by setting poll_without_inotify: true, but crowdsec will revert to calling stat() very frequently on each file, which will make your CPU usage explode.

[aukfood]

@blotus I try 32000 but no results.

Where to add poll_without_inotify: true ??? I try in section common in config.yaml

[LaurenceJJones]

@blotus I try 32000 but no results.

Where to add poll_without_inotify: true ??? I try in section common in config.yaml

You add it like this

---
filenames:
  - /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/access*
  - /var/www/*/var/log/apache2/error*
poll_without_inotify: true
labels:
  type: apache2

[aukfood]

@LaurenceJJones @blotus no change with 32000 files and poll_without_inotify: true

poll_without_inotify: true

[LaurenceJJones]

@LaurenceJJones @blotus no change with 32000 files and poll_without_inotify: true

poll_without_inotify: true

And you dont have any duplicate entries?
