bug#28087: "guix build: error: no build log for gnu-store-pathto.drv" with previously offloaded successful build

[ng0]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 876 bytes --]

I offload my builds by default.
The build in question succeeded. Now I wanted to read the log of the successful build to check
the configure options.
I thought I'd just do:

guix build --log-file --no-grafts --check --no-build-hook --rounds=2 --verbosity=5 mate-session-manager

Verbosity was just added later, and so was --check and --no-grafts and --rounds.
The only time I did not get was when the build was grafted, which got me a log
file with the content of the graft locationA -> locationB in it.

Every other try just gives me:
guix build: error: no build log for '/gnu/store/l5cznxxdnbf803mkjavmg9kajicy7751-mate-session-manager-1.18.1.drv'

Is this a bug or just a mistake of where I put "--log-file"?

Hi ng0,

Sorry for the late reply.

Note: don’t use “--log-file” along with “--check”; these are two
different things.

Can you still reproduce this?

If so, can you manually check whether the log file you’re looking for is
actually in /var/log/guix/drvs on your machine?

TIA,

ng0,

Does “guix build --log-file” work for you now?

I’d suggest closing this bug unless you have more info to provide.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Since, it was 2 years ago, I am closing this bug.  Feel free to re-open
if there is more info to provide.

All the best,
