Description

Hello,

yesterday I upgraded our test instance of rudder server to 6.0.0 .
I now have the problem that relayd stops working. When I try to restart it won't,
because the url for database contains the fully-qualified domain name, but the database
only listens on 127.0.0.1 .
When I change that url to 127.0.0.1, I can start relayd but after a while it will stop again.
The url will point to FQDN again. Some process changes main.conf but without a logfile I am unable to
debug the problem.
I have not found information about turning on logging for relayd - is it possible to have a logfile?
Maybe I made a mistake on upgrading - I only updated the rpm packets.
In the documentation I didn't find any specific actions to take on upgrade.

Thanks for your help
Tobias

Thanks for reporting this!

It looks like a bug in the system roles defined in the system techniques. It should indeed use localhost on a normal root server.

The host is changed by the agent at each run, which breaks relayd. Relayd logs are currently only stored in journald (acessible with `journalctl -u rudder-relayd`, we need to add a rsyslog config to log it along with our other log files).

I just installed 6.0.2 and it seems to work now - database host is localhost and stays that way, even after an agent run.

We didn't reproduced that, and since Tobias said it now works for him, I'm closing that ticket. Feel free to reopen and open a new one if the problem comes back.
