I have a configuration with a "detail" module writing to a file with locking = yes I have a type = detail listener on that same file.
Under some load, apparantly, very sporadically a packet seems to gets lost. Am I correct to say that with locking = yes , there should never be any packet lost due to the reader renaming the file while the writer is writing to it ?
Yes. The writing process is: lock the file write to it unlock The rename process is: try to lock it if not, wait a bit rename it unlock it
How would be a good approach to further troubleshoot this ?
It's pretty hard. If there's a lot of traffic, there would be a lot of debugging logs. And that's hard to deal with. Alan DeKok.
