    Simple Log Service:Release notes

    Last Updated:Dec 13, 2024

    This topic describes the release notes for Simple Log Service Logtail and provides links to the relevant references.

    2.1.1

    Release date: November 1, 2024

    • New features

      • Standard output collection for containers implemented in C++ is added.

      • Self-monitoring capabilities are upgraded. C++ and Golang plug-ins report self-monitoring data in a unified manner.

    2.0.10

    Release date: October 19, 2024

    • Fixed issues

      • The binary log plug-in cannot retrieve the start global transaction identifier (GTID) when it exceeds 1024 bytes. This issue is fixed.

      • The native delimiter plug-in cannot parse strings containing double quotation marks. This issue is fixed.

    2.0.8

    Release date: August 13, 2024

    • Fixed issues

      • In Logtail V2.0.7, a token that is requested when you use environment variables to configure collection settings can expire. This issue is fixed.

    2.0.7

    Release date: July 31, 2024

    • Fixed issues

      • If a zero-byte string in a JSON log is escaped, the log is truncated. This issue is fixed.

      • When the system calls the gethostbyname method, which is not thread safe, a coredump occurs. This issue is fixed.

      • When you use OpenTelemetry to parse gauge metrics, labels are lost. This issue is fixed.

      • When a program resumes data consumption from a checkpoint, a large number of files may be generated due to rotation, and the length of the reader queue may be exceeded. As a result, the data consumption fails to be resumed. In addition, a new reader incorrectly reads the checkpoint of an existing reader during inode reuse. In this case, truncation and duplicate collection occur. This issue is fixed.

      • When you use the input_canel plug-in, the global transaction identifier (GTID) is inaccurate. This issue is fixed.

    • Fixed issues

      • When you use Logtail V2.0.4 to collect logs from a Kubernetes cluster, the configured environment variable settings do not take effect. This issue is fixed.

      • In stdout and stderr collection scenarios, Logtail plug-ins encounter panic errors when the GetRealPath function is called. This issue is fixed.

      • When you use Logtail configurations that contain extended plug-in settings to collect self-monitoring logs of Distributed System Performance Monitor, the logs are lost. This issue is fixed.
