Re: Request for Multibuildpack Use Cases
Mike Youngstrom <youngm@...>
John,
It sounds like the buildpack team is thinking the multi buildpack feature would only work for buildpacks they provide not a custom "dependency-resolution" buildpack. Or at least that is how I understood the message from Danny Rosen earlier in the thread.

I encounter a lot of use cases for this. The most common is that an application wants to pull in private dependencies during a future dependency-resolution step of a later buildpack, but the dependency resolver needs to be primed in some specific way. If you wait until buildpack time it's too late.
On Heroku, for example, this is accomplished by having something like the netrc buildpack ( https://github.com/timshadel/heroku-buildpack-github-netrc), adding a GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable, and then running your "real" buildpack. The netrc BP runs first, allowing Bundler to see the private dependencies.

Many jobs in cf-release rely on data from BOSH to determine their IP so that configuration files can be rendered up-front by the director rather than at runtime, requiring system calls to determine IP. metron_agent is one such job, and it tends to be colocated with each other job (it is what allows all system component logs to be aggregated through the loggregator system), so this would require all Cloud Foundry VMs to be on a manual network. You don't need to manually pick the IPs, you just need to tell BOSH which IPs in the network not to use and specify these in the "reserved" range.
Since so many different components depend on being able to determine their IP via BOSH data, there's no quick workaround if you want to stick to using dynamic networks, but we're aware of this current limitation.

Re: Request for Multibuildpack Use Cases
Another common use case for me is that an application is polyglot in some way. For example, you have a blog you'd like to deploy that uses a static site generator written in (say) Go. You would have the Go buildpack run to bootstrap and generate the resulting files in some output directory, and then the staticfile buildpack runs and serves the files from the output directory.

I'll let the Loggregator team respond formally. But, in my conversations with the Loggregator team I think we're basically stuck not sure what the right thing to do is on the client side. How does the client trigger in loggregator that this is a multi line log message or what is the right way for loggregator to detect that the client is trying to send a multi line log message? Any ideas?

Hi, Trying to a fresh new installation of CF on AWS - I'm hitting the following issue when the deployment is trying to update the api_z1/0 jobs. I'm following the instruction - http://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/aws/cf-stub.html and as well http://docs.cloudfoundry.org/deploying/common/consul-security.html to generate the consul certificates. According to the log - the consult_agent process failed to start. {"timestamp":"1460475448.173879385","source":"confab","message":"confab.agent-client.verify-joined.members.request.failed","log_level":2,"data":{"error":"Get http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/agent/members: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:8
500: getsockopt: connection refused","wan":false}}
==> Starting Consul agent...
==> Error starting agent: Failed to start Consul client: Failed to load cert/key pair: crypto/tls: failed to parse certificate PEM data
How can I debug this issue ? Cheers, sylvain

Re: Doppler/Firehose - Multiline Log Entry
Mike Youngstrom <youngm@...>
Hi David,
The problem for me is that I'm searching for a solution that can works for development (though less of a priority cause you can switch config between dev and cf) and for viewing logs via "cf logs" in addition to a log aggregator. I had hoped that /u2028 would work for viewing logs via "cf logs" but it doesn't in bash. I'd need to write a plugin or something for cf logs and train all my users to use it. Certainly possible but I'm not that desperate yet. :)

Hi Jim,
So, to be clear what we're basically doing is using unicode newline character to fool loggregator (which is looking for \n) into thinking that it isn't a new log event right? Does \u2028 work as a new line character when tailing logs in the CLI? Anyone tried this unicode new line character in various consoles? IDE, xterm, etc? I'm wondering if developers will need to have different config for development.

The second is this workaround that David Laing suggested for Logstash. Think you could use it for Splunk?
With the Java Logback library you can do this by adding "%replace(%xException){'\n','\u2028'}%nopex" to your logging config[1] , and then use the following logstash conf.[2] Replace the unicode newline character \u2028 with \n, which Kibana will display as a new line.
mutate {

to replace the token with a regular newline again so it displays "properly" in Kibana.

Re: CPU weight of application
Hi, Sam,
No, the LRP generated for the CF app will have its CPU weight set proportionally to its desired memory. Keep in mind that for an app running on Linux, the CPU weight corresponds to the cpu.shares cgroup, which enforces a relative amount of CPU usage amongst processes only if there is contention over CPU. If nothing else is competing for CPU on the VM, your process can use as much as it is capable of using.
Thanks, Eric, CF Runtime Diego PM

CF212 - golang app crash - how to perform the troubleshooting?
Hi :)
I am starting an app and it crashes. In the meantime when it is trying to start I login to appropriate warden container and after the app crashes I try to start the go binary manually. The problem is that I am not able to see in the environment variables like VCAP_SERVICES and I cannot pass its content correctly to my app.
Can you tell me how to start my app inside the warden container once I login through wsh with proper environment setup? I tried below:
root(a)19g7korv77m:/app# export VCAP_SERVICES='{"mongodb26":[{"credentials":{"dbname":"...} root(a)19g7korv77m:/app# bin/my_go_binary
but it is obviously not the proper way. How does cloudfoundry pass variables to the process started in the warden container?
BR, Rafal.

Re: Request for Multibuildpack Use Cases
David Illsley <davidillsley@...>
In the past we've used the multi-buildpack to be able to use ruby sass to compile SCSS for non-ruby projects (node and Java). In that case we used the multi-buildpack and a .buildpacks file which worked reasonably well (and was very clear).

The CF Buildpacks team is considering taking on a line of work to provide more formal support for multibuildpacks. Before we start, we would be interested in learning if any community users have compelling use cases they could share with us.

Why hm9000 write message to /var/log/syslog
Hi,
We recently encountered a CF crash due to full disk issue of root file system of CC and HM9000. I found HM9000 wrote log message to /var/log/syslog. Does anybody know why? I think CF jobs should not use root file system since the stemcell only has 3G space.
CF version is 197.
Thanks, Maggie
