Can't access pod logs

11/4/2015

I am trying to access the logs of a pod in a kubernetes cluster but get a 404 on sending the following rest request:

GET api/namespaces/myNamespace/pods/myPod/log

When I try to see the status of the pod I get the following:

"metadata": {
        "name": "podtest",
        "generateName": "podtest-",
        "namespace": "podtest01734160-58f9-4042-8f38-3e55d7d5beb3",

              }
            },
            "lastState": {},
            "ready": true,

          }
        ]
      }
    },

Why can't I get to the logs?

This works from me /api/v1/namespaces/myNamespace/pods/myPod/log

Yours doesn't have the api version.

try GET api/v1/namespaces/"podtest01734160-58f9-4042-8f38-3e55d7d5beb3"/pods/myPod/log

there are two points need to be aware: 1. in metadata it shows "namespace": "podtest01734160-58f9-4042-8f38-3e55d7d5beb3" but it is not myNamespace, 2. as the answer from iocanel, the api version is necessary, more info could be check here : kubernetes.io/v1.1/docs/api-reference/v1/operations.html

I found these; When the pod status changes to Running you can use the kubectl logs command to view the output.

kubectl logs podname

https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/docs/getting-started-guides/logging.md

kubectl cluster-info

http://kubernetes.io/v1.0/docs/user-guide/accessing-the-cluster.html#accessing-the-api-from-a-pod How do I access the Kubernetes api from within a pod container?
