Logs not appearing in Loggly if log size is > 4MB

[duxthefux]

Hey,

I'm trying to get everything working since a couple of hours and I just figured out it's not working because of the log size (around 4MB).

If I test it with a smaller log file it's easily pushing to Loggly.

Do have know a workaround? Maybe trying to avoid to send the whole logs at once?

Thanks!

@duxthefux, sorry that you ran into this. Is there anything in the CloudWatch logs that indicate exactly why it is failing?

As a quick fix, have you tried increasing the MemorySize and Timeout configuration of your lambda function? (What values do you currently have them set to?)

Regarding changes to the code: The current version downloads the entire S3 object before processing and uploading the results to S3. The processing-and-upload side uses a bufferStream, so I think the code could be modified to make the call to s3.getObject() be the head of the stream.

I think you could just remove the download function from the async pipeline and replace bufferStream at line 309 with: s3.getObject({ Bucket: bucket, Key: key}).createReadStream()

This would only help if Lambda timeouts or memory size is the reason for it failing.

Hey, I don't think the problems are caused by MemorySize or Timeout because Timeout is already set to 4m50 and MemorySize to the maximum. Moreover I get nice logs from CloudWatch: http://pastebin.com/jFyNrJ43 (It's only parsing 5000 events because I added a limit because I thought the problem is caused by loggly's 5MB bulk limit)...in the very beginning it worked a few times but not any longer...it's pretty weird...:-/

thanks!
