Bug Report

Describe the bug Brand new setup. OS Name: Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Datacenter OS Version: 10.0.17763 N/A Build 17763 Fluent Bit Version: 1.8.11-win64

After fluent-bit is started with the following command - .\bin\fluent-bit.exe -c .\conf\fluent-bit.conf - the following errors are seen:

• Connectivity to logs.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com:443 is successful. Checked with WSL (netcat) and Powershell.

To Reproduce

• Use above configurations for fluent-bit and run the following command ".\bin\fluent-bit.exe -c .\conf\fluent-bit.conf"
• AWS EC2 machine with instance profile with above permissions

Expected behavior

• Fluent-bit to be able to start, create CloudWatch log groups and streams and send logs.

Actual behavior

• Fluent-bit starts but is unable to create log streams and therefore keeps retrying.

Just as an update when using the WSL on the Windows server to push a single log, it works fine. However as the logs on the server are not having the same directory structure from WSL point of view and the Linux version of fluent-bit does not provide a /some/directory/**/*.log I cannot use WSL as a workaround. The test shows that the machine has access to CW logs from networking and IAM perspective.

A little bit more info that might help in troubleshooting this issue. As per the logs I posted in #4727 the error is coming from this function called here. As -1 is used as the return code for each error, it's not clear exactly which line of code causes the issue. Perhaps adding more debug statements or using different error codes will help? Please note that this error is happening only in the fluent-bit pod's C code. I installed AWS CLI v2 on the pod after it started running, and executed a command aws logs create-log-group. That worked without any error, so there is no issue in the pod's network connectivity to AWS STS / CW.

I noticed that you are running in TRACE level but I don't see much there, would you be able to share the complete log file? Also, maybe someone else remembers this better, but, since there is a socket number in the log line and no indications of a timeout, I'm wondering if this could be related to SSL. I remember there was a PR that improved certificate loading in windows but I can't remember in which version it was included, would you be able to test the latest version of the 1.8 branch (master would be great too).

I am seeing this issue as well running FluentBit v1.9.1 in a Windows container based on mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2019 on Kubernetes 1.21. Underlying Windows node is running Windows Server 2019.

My logs include additional message [tls] error: unexpected EOF output by this line (introduced in v1.9.0): https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit/blob/da871ff712dde152c5325257808e997f336dadc4/src/tls/openssl.c#L488

This issue appears to be similar to #5381.

Please remove stale

I am seeing what appears to be the same issue (I came here from #4727 which has a clearer description of how to repro the problem).

The problem looks similar to #4735 which appears to have been fixed in 1.9.0. I see a big change has modified src/tls/openssl.c since that time. Is it possible that something regressed this functionality?
