splunk-kubernetes-logging won't collect application logs

[whigley]

What happened: splunk-kubernetes-logging collects kubernetes container logs, but it does not for application container logs

What you expected to happen: See my application container logs

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible): Use the default splunk-kubernetes-logging. for log path, I tried both: /var/log/containers/.log or /var/log/pods/.log

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version): 1.23
• Ruby version (use ruby --version):
• OS (e.g: cat /etc/os-release): Linux
• Splunk version: 9.0.1 (latest)
• Splunk Connect for Kubernetes helm chart version: 1.5.0 & develop branch
• Others:

Hi @whigley, what do you mean by application container logs? splunk-kubernetes-logging is built to collect logs from kubernetes container only.

[whigley]

yes, I am looking to collect application logs which run into EKS cluster.
