[Bug]: Plaso hanging #1421

Closed aarontp closed 7 months ago

aarontp commented 7 months ago

What steps will reproduce the bug?

Run Turbinia processing request with Plaso Job.

What is the expected behavior?

Plaso job completes successfully.

What do you see instead?

Plaso job seems to hang indefinitely.

Additional information

Because the version of plaso built into the last release has passed the 6mo mark it emits a warning message about the age of the binary which breaks the parsing the pinfo output which runs as part of the Plaso job as it is expecting pure json output.

This has already been fixed in #1419 and #1420 and subsequently released in https://github.com/google/turbinia/releases/tag/20231116.2 . This bug is just in case anyone runs into this issue and needs to know the workaround/fix for it.
