Searching production logs based on level and date - does it work properly?

[Janusz Skonieczny]

Hi,

I am looking through my production logs and I cannot make the search feature work for me. Maybe it's me doing things work, so please help me figure this out.

First, not that important, setting the timezone only complicates things cause the hour in the logs does not change but that timezone setting must be accounted while using "Since" filed.

I have a log I look for about 22:11, so I search since 22:15 with no result:

When I change since to 23:15 — I have +1 TZ — it is there:

Is it me, or this should not work that way?

Now to the important part… When I expand the logs I don't have any debug level entries. OK, maybe it's somehow filtered, so I change "minimum severity" to Debug:

Now I have a bunch of debug messages, and it seems OK, cause all of them are < 23:15, but then the whey there was no error messages from 22:11 when I searched since 22:15? I must have been this TZ thing, but now it isn't. WTF?

OK, so I change the time again to since 22:15:

Come on! No records? I need help here, what am I doing wrong?

Thx in advance. Janusz.
