[SOLVED] Activity Log Inaccurate

[infinityM]

Hey Guys,

I am hoping someone can help me...
Somewhere about 2 month's ago I noticed that I can no longer see the full activity logs.
I can see for example the backup command start the backps, but then there's no log where I can see the progress.
Same thing with migrations etc. I can only see the command in the logs not the progress...

What might be causing that? And how can I fix it?

Where exactly are you missing those logs? You can double-click tasks then a window pops up, showing detailed logs of that task.

No it doesn't it's the task that dissapears. backups for example, I can see it running with the icon on the server, but I can't see any progress at all... The task just goes away after it starts the job

Does the task show up in the task list at the bottom of the screen?

do you mean further down or at the very bottom of the list?

The original task shows, for example a migration shows migrate server 100 to c1 for example. But as soon as the initial command is complete and the running process should show up, it just doesn't that one never shows up in the logs....

sorry in the task list not logs...

What happens if you double-click that original task in the task list?

Just says "ok" no log entries

What PVE version have you installed?

Hey Guys,

Ok so I found the problem. The server had previously been compromised. I was able to resolve the hack but missed 1 cronjob they made:
* * * * * root bash -c 'for i in $(find /var/log -type f); do cat /dev/null > $i; done' >/dev/null 2>&1

Which ended up nulling out the logs every minute. So the task started and about a minute after it just disappeared since the cron was being cleared.

Thank you guys for the advise though
