1. Situation
Log entries are suddenly missing for a certain runtime.
2. Problem
The problem in this case was that a message which exceeded the maximum size of 1MB was send to the topic on that runtime. This caused the logging to shut down.
3. Analysis
3.1 Reproduction
N/A
3.2 Analysis
Analysis showed that logging can be stopped due to messages which exceed the maximum size of 1MB being placed on a topic, however, this does not happen for each of those messages. This can shut down the log entries for the whole runtime.
4. Result
There is no permanent fix for this issue as it is hard to reproduce. Restarting the runtime will resolve the problem.
