@kapa.ai how to tail logs in a local airbyte 2.0 deployment? can i use abctl for that? if not, how to?

You can’t tail logs directly with

abctl

today; it doesn’t expose a

logs

or

tail

subcommand in the docs.

abctl

is used to install/manage the local cluster, not to stream logs. [[abctl deploy](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/2.0/deploying-airbyte/abctl); [Developing locally](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/2.0/contributing-to-airbyte/developing-locally)] For a local Airbyte 2.0 deployment via

abctl

, you have two main options: --- ### 1. Use

kubectl

against the

abctl

kind cluster 1. Export the kubeconfig for the

abctl

cluster:

bash    kind export kubeconfig -n airbyte-abctl

2. List pods:

bash    kubectl get pods -n airbyte-abctl

3. Tail logs for a specific pod (e.g. server):

bash    kubectl logs -n airbyte-abctl airbyte-abctl-server-<pod-id> -f

This streams logs (

-f

= follow). [[Developing locally](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/2.0/contributing-to-airbyte/developing-locally)] You can use the same pattern for worker, webapp, etc. --- ### 2. Browse per‑job logs from Docker volumes (Open Source) If you want the logs for a specific sync attempt: 1. Find the job and attempt in the UI (e.g. job

9

, attempt

0

→

/tmp/workspace/9/0

). 2. Open a shell into the

airbyte_workspace

Docker volume:

bash    docker run -it --rm --volume airbyte_workspace:/data busybox    ls /data/9/0

You’ll see

logs.log

and related files. [[Exploring local logs](https://docs.airbyte.com/platform/2.0/operator-guides/browsing-output-logs#exploring-local-logs)] 3. Or run a one‑off command from the host:

bash    docker run -it --rm --volume airbyte_workspace:/data busybox cat /data/9/0/logs.log

There isn’t documented support for a

tail -f

style stream from that file via `abctl`; you’d need to re‑run the

docker run

command or use

kubectl logs -f

as above.

i don't have the kind executable
