Troubleshooting Zincobserve Upload Error

Simon

hi, I installed zincobserve by docker in local. then: `curl -i -u email:pwd -d @notice.log` upload my multi line JSON logs. but reponse error: ```HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error content-length: 40 vary: Origin, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 date: Fri, 26 May 2023 09:16:31 GMT trailing characters at line 1 column 351```

Hengfei

What is your notice.log format?

Hengfei

Simon

a app log file, multiple json lines, such as : ```{"app": "order", "msg": "some msg"} {"app": "order", "msg": "some msg 2"}```

Hengfei

try this: ``` curl -i -u email:pwd --data-binary "@k8slog_json.json"```

Simon

get new error: `invalid number at line 1 column 2`

Hengfei

i guess you file format not json line by line. maybe you file content is an array of json.

Hengfei

can you show some line of your file?

Simon

oo, It's real multi line json... there are lines in file head: ```{"time":1684922046,"type":"info","thread":"main","data":{},"msg":"start"} {"time":1684922046,"type":"info","thread":"main","data":{},"msg":"start ok"} {"time":1684922046,"type":"info","thread":"main","data":{},"msg":"app started"}```

Hengfei

No problem, but the error looks file format error.

Hengfei

Can you give the file to me, let me check.

Simon

hi, you can save provided JSON lines as `demo.log` i get same error:

Simon

zinc-observe version is v0.4.4

Hengfei

is my test, it is no problem. with your log contents.

Hengfei

okay

Hengfei

your curl command is wrong.

Hengfei

please use ```--data-binary "@demo.log"```

Simon

thanks hi, i tested, if use `-d "@demo.log"` will get error. mybe because my os is windows? shell is git bash ```inhere@inhere-win MINGW64 ~/Downloads/a $ curl -X 'POST' '' -H 'accept: application/json' -H 'Authorization: Basic some==' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d "@demo.log" trailing characters at line 1 column 74 inhere@inhere-win MINGW64 ~/Downloads/a $ curl -i -X 'POST' '' -H 'accept: application/json' -H 'Authorization: Basic aW4uNzk4QHFxLmNvbTpoaTEyMzQ1Ng==' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"time":1684922046,"type":"info","thread":"main","data":{},"msg":"start"} {"time":1684922046,"type":"info","thread":"main","data":{},"msg":"start ok"} {"time":1684922046,"type":"info","thread":"main","data":{},"msg":"app started"}' HTTP/1.1 200 OK content-length: 68 content-type: application/json vary: Origin, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers date: Mon, 29 May 2023 07:46:10 GMT {"code":200,"status":[{"name":"default","successful":3,"failed":0}]}```

Hengfei

you can't use `-d`

Hengfei

the command `-d` must provide some data, not a file.

Hengfei

if you want to provide a file, please use ```--data-binary "@demo.log"```

Simon

:joy: ok, thanks you.
