04/06/2022, 1:54 AMHey @red-napkin-59945 how are you running GMS? Are you doing so via Gradle or Docker? If it’s via Gradle please run GMS using
./gradlew :metadata-service:war:run -Dlogback.debug=trueechoing-airport-49548
04/06/2022, 1:57 AMIf you want to run GMS using Docker you can find instructions for enabling debugging here https://datahubproject.io/docs/docker/development

04/06/2022, 4:55 PM@echoing-airport-49548 thanks for the info, actually I am not trying to attach a debuger on dev env. I would like to change the logger's level to DEBUG

04/06/2022, 4:55 PM@square-activity-64562 we are running docker image in Kubernetes, seems there is no way to get the debug log file in our setup

04/06/2022, 4:59 PMI remember log4j has some config to change the logger level. Do you guys know where to config log4j?

04/07/2022, 9:06 AMEven within the kubernetes pod there should be a debug file at that location. Are you unable to get inside the pod due to some restrictions?

04/08/2022, 9:36 AMThis file is running the command for GMS https://github.com/datahub-project/datahub/blob/master/docker/datahub-gms/start.sh

04/08/2022, 9:37 AMSo if you want to be able to pass arguments via env variable because you cannot get inside the pod then you will have to change this file

04/08/2022, 9:38 AMFew options come to my mind right now
• Send a PR with the new environment variables in that file allowing changing log level (Preferred solution)
• Create your own gms image on top of the published image and replace this file
• Talk to your infra team/security team to get the file. They can copy it from the pod and share it with you
@echoing-airport-49548 already shared the command line args required https://datahubspace.slack.com/archives/C029A3M079U/p1649210076184869?thread_ts=1649191206.539199&cid=C029A3M079U
