how to view k3s service logs to identify SQLite compaction issues

[venkatamutyala]

How can i view the k3d service logs? I'm trying to debug whether or not my SQLite is having issues with compaction.

I believe i only see the api server logs when i am running

docker logs <server-container-id> -f

I checked /var/log but i only see my own workloads being logged.

Also, i've tried creating my k3ds cluster with --trace but i think it only provides logs from the cli during initial creation.

I think i found it. I added this to my config.yaml:

env:
  - envVar: K3S_DEBUG=true
    nodeFilters:
      - server:*

This worked. I was able to get the COMPACT messages
