I am using the following docker compose for my traefik docker container

 traefik:
  image: traefik:v3.1.2
  container_name: traefik
  restart: unless-stopped
  command:
    - --global.sendanonymoususage=false
    - --api=true
    - --entrypoints.web.address=:80
    - --entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.to=websecure
    - --entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.scheme=https
    - --entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.permanent=true
    - --entrypoints.websecure.address=:443
    - --entrypoints.websecure.asDefault=true
    - --entrypoints.websecure.http.tls=true
    - --providers.docker=true
    - --providers.docker.exposedbydefault=false
    - --providers.file.filename=/traefik/config.toml
    - --log.level=DEBUG
  ports:
    - 80:80
    - 443:443
  volumes:
    - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
    - /etc/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt
    - /opt/containers/traefik:/traefik
  labels:
    - traefik.enable=true
    - traefik.http.routers.traefik.rule=Host(`traefik.domain.tld`)
    - traefik.http.routers.traefik.service=api@internal
    - traefik.http.routers.traefik.middlewares=authtraefik
    - traefik.http.middlewares.authtraefik.basicauth.users=user:pass

I can access the traefik dashboard, all the other docker container's reverse proxy is also working fine but for some weird reason, the stdout log just shows up empty for some reason. I have restarted traefik docker container many times but to no avail

❯ docker compose logs -f traefik produces literally nothing

The above seems correct.

But it seems strange that you can access the dashboard without --api.dashboard=true.

So is this the right compose file you used to start the service? You are in the right folder?

UPDATE: never mind

dashboard
Optional, Default=true

Yes, this is the very exact docker compose i used to start the traefik container. For some more context, it all working fine earlier. i had to make some change in my config.toml file to add a new router and service but it caused some error so i reverted that change and restarted traefik container but the logs would just not show up now

Did you try to restart Docker or the host?

I have tried restarting docker & my host as well but didn't helped

Edit - It gave me these errors on my host restart randomly. All of my container's reverse proxy + traefik dashboard still works fine, just stdout log is always empty and these errors show up once in a while

Hi @xd003

I'm encountering the same issue. I had misconfigured the mounted logs directory, accidentally saving them to /etc/traefik in the container. Before realizing my error, I was messing around with the logs settings in traefik.yml, switching between ERROR / INFO logs and trying to get traefik to save the output logs on the mapping of my host.

After one of the container reboots, traefik just stopped printing logs to docker. I'm getting the same error you got after rebooting.

Did you ever find the reason or a fix for your issue?

Edit: My log configuration in traefik.yml is the following:

log:
  level: "DEBUG"
  filePath: "/var/log/traefik/traefik.log"

What OS, how did you install Docker, what do your bind mounts look like?
