The datadog agent runs under the dd-agent user and dd-agent group. This prevents dd-agent accessing the logs in /var/log as they are only accessible by root (or a sudo admin).

In order to allow read only access for dd-agent only, create ACL's and modify logrotate to persist the permissions changes.

You can manually set the ACL with:

sudo setfacl -m g:dd-agent:rx /var/log/<application-name>

This will not persist as logrotate will not re-apply the ACL setting so for a more permanent solution you can add a rule to logrotate to reset the ACL. You will need to create a new file:

FILEPATH = 'hashes'
SEP = '\t'

def log(metric_name, metric_type='count', metric_value=1, tags=[]):

# put this file in /etc/systemd/system/ as root
# below paths assume solr installed in /opt/solr, SOLR_PID_DIR is /data
# and that all configuration exists in /etc/default/solr.in.sh which is the case if previously installed as an init.d service
# change port in pid file if differs
# note that it is configured to auto restart solr if it fails (Restart=on-faliure) and that's the motivation indeed :)
# to switch from systemv (init.d) to systemd, do the following after creating this file:
# sudo systemctl daemon-reload
# sudo service solr stop # if already running
# sudo systemctl enable solr
# systemctl start solr
