Is this a support request?

  • This is not a support request

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

I run headscale with the following config snippet:

but logs are in text format

I expect to see logs in JSON format

Steps To Reproduce

Run headscale with log.format: json set in the configuration

Environment

- Tailscale version: not relevant

Runtime environment

  • Headscale is behind a (reverse) proxy
  • Headscale runs in a container

Anything else?

I have checked and it appears this has been broken in 0.23.0-beta 4, beta3 still logs in json

I can confirm it; I was also just wondering why it wasn't logging more in json, version 0.23

I never saw Headscale logging in files except in /var/log/syslog. From commits i can see it should log into /var/lib/headscale/headscale.log, but it does not.
