seems to stop sending information randomly?

[ayhoung]

for some reason, the logstash forwarder works well when I first start it up, but silently gives up after a while?

I ran into this problem too, last week. I found this issue, and tried upgrading to logstash 1.5.4, and this seemed to fix things for me. What version are you running?

[ayhoung]

logstash:all/stable 1:1.5.4-1 uptodate

for me, im not sure if its my logstash. i tried checking the logs for errors but didn't get any

Having the same problem. Is there a fix to this?

[jwalton]

It's definitely not a problem we're seeing - we use bunyan-lumberjack on a number of servers, and they're all happily sending data. There was a bug in an earlier version of lumberjack-protocol which caused it to throw an uncaught exception when messages were dropped, but this should be an extremely rare occurrence and has been fixed.

[jwalton]

If you have a recipe for reproducing this, though, I'd definitely be interested. We have a lot of production servers that rely on this, so if it's broken I want to know. :)

would love to see if I can have a skype session with you to show you.

For me the last log thats created by a node process before exiting with a code 0, was the one missing from the logs. But then again, it started working after a logstash reinstall. I am not sure both those might be connected, but flushing the streams might be the likely cause.
