Logs
The list of all the charm components are well described in the “Architecture”. It is a dedicated section to highlight logs for each component to simplify troubleshooting.
Core logs
PostgreSQL and Patroni logs can be found in /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/postgresql
and /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/patroni
respectively:

The PostgreSQL log naming convention is postgresql-<weekday>_<hour><minute>.log
. The log message format is <date> <time> UTC [<pid>]: <connection details> <level>: <message>
. E.g:
> cat /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/postgresql/postgresql-3_1508.log
2023-10-11 15:08:17 GMT [4338]: user=,db=,app=,client=,line=8 LOG: received SIGHUP, reloading configuration files
2023-10-11 15:08:17 GMT [4338]: user=,db=,app=,client=,line=9 LOG: parameter "archive_command" changed to "pgbackrest --config=/var/snap/charmed-postgresql/current/etc/pgbackrest/pgbackrest.conf --stanza=pg.pg archive-push %p"

2023-10-11 15:08:27 GMT [4338]: user=,db=,app=,client=,line=10 LOG: received SIGHUP, reloading configuration files
The Patroni log message format is <date> <time> UTC [<pid>]: <level>: <message>
. E.g:
> cat /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/patroni/patroni.log.4
2023-10-11 15:27:01 UTC [4247]: WARNING: Could not activate Linux watchdog device: "Can't open watchdog device: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/dev/watchdog'"

2023-10-11 15:27:11 UTC [4247]: INFO: Changed synchronous_commit from on to True
All timestamps are in UTC.
Optional logs
If S3 backups are enabled, Pgbackrest logs would be located in /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/pgbackrest
:
> ls -alh /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/pgbackrest/
total 20K
drwxr-xr-x 2 snap_daemon root 4.0K Oct 11 15:14 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 snap_daemon root 4.0K Oct 11 15:04 ..
-rw-r----- 1 snap_daemon snap_daemon 1.7K Oct 11 15:14 pg.pg-backup.log
-rw-r----- 1 snap_daemon snap_daemon 717 Oct 11 15:14 pg.pg-expire.log
-rw-r----- 1 snap_daemon snap_daemon 859 Oct 11 15:08 pg.pg-stanza-create.log
The naming convention of the Pgbackrest logs is <model name>.patroni-<postgresql app name>-<action>.log
. Log output should look similar to:
> cat /var/snap/charmed-postgresql/common/var/log/pgbackrest/pg.pg-expire.log

Logs rotation
Charmed PostgreSQL is configured to rotate PostgreSQL text logs every minute and Patroni logs approximately every minute and both are to retain a week’s worth of logs.
For PostgreSQL, logs will be truncated when the week turns and the same minute of the same hour of the same weekday comes to pass. E.g. at 12:01 UTC on Monday either a new log file will be created or last week’s log will be overwritten.
Due to Patroni only supporting size based rotation, it has been configured to retain logs for a comparatively similar timeframe as PostgreSQL. The assumed size of a minute of Patroni logs is 600 bytes, but the estimation is bound to be imprecise. Patroni will retain 10,080 log files (for every minute of a week). The current log is patroni.log
, when rotating Patroni will append a number to the name of the file and remove logs over the limit.
