Admin web server log view overflowed with ContestWebServer warnings

Open PPakalns opened this issue 2 months ago • 0 comments

Description: ContestWebServer warnings are triggered by simple conditions and hides important warnings in AdminWebServer Logs view.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. One such case: If contestant doesn't do correct logout, contestant device will keep sending notification requests in one minute interval. Their authentication expires and warnings will be raised forever.
12:10:27	WARNING	ContestWebServer,1		
403 GET /contest/notifications?last_notification=1764777422.659463 (***.***.***.***) 6.96ms
12:09:27	WARNING	ContestWebServer,1		
403 GET /contest/notifications?last_notification=1764777422.659463 (***.***.***.***) 6.96ms

This error and similar 403 status code errors can be easily triggered by contestant. These will hide all other important errors from other services in AdminWebServer. Very important for long running contests.

Would be nice if such warnings could be filtered out from log view. Maybe log view could add filtering by service.
