Derek Dagit commented on STORM-469:
-----------------------------------

That could be tricky.  The storm worker code would need to know the byte-offset 
into the log at which the error occurred and report that as part of the error, 
and I'm not sure we would want the worker to know such details of the logging 
system.

Recently we started testing a change to storm that allows us to search the most 
recent, active worker logs for a fixed string.  Once we find the opportunity to 
submit it to apache/storm, we could then add a link to perform a search on the 
corresponding worker log for that sub-string that we see now.  This way the 
storm worker code does not have to know where its log messages are going or 
know anything about file offsets.

We could click this new link next to the cut-off error text and we would be 
able to see any instances in the real worker log file with that error snippet.

> The error text that is captured in the Storm UI is insufficient to debug the 
> issue as it gets cut off and does not link to the actual error to allow a 
> person to get more detail. This means that the debugging is unnecessarily 
> blind. This prevents diagnosis of the error.
