Description Vadim Rutkovsky 2014-07-18 17:37:51 UTC

Since http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/commit/?id=874bc134ac6504c45e94174e37af13ff21a6bfe2 some messages are missing in the journal - gnome-session should send a tagged message (see https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-session/tree/gnome-session/gsm-manager.c#n1363), tracked by Gnome Continuous. In 99% of cases this message is not in journal.

Not sure if I fetched systemd's debug output correctly, but it didn't list anything about 'too big entry'

I looked at the commit again, and I don't see anything suspicious...

Can you start systemd-journald in debug mode:

1. create file

# /etc/systemd/system/systemd-journald.service.d/debug.conf
[Service]
Environment=SYSTEMD_LOG_LEVEL=debug

2. reload

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl restart systemd-journald

This should allow you to capture log messages from journald.

Fixed in git a174f94d529c7ae9be589867308b669ec9b4dcc0.
