(Reposting without signature) I am using HRD. No changes to code, we've been doing the same thing for months. I remember this happening in the past, tasks just failing randomly with no logs. They eventually go through, but the instances usually restart before the tasks finish. CPU/Memory usage look fine the entire life of the process I run.
I use python so there's no log4j but I use the default settings, so all logging messages, including debug, make it into my log. The problem seems to have gone away, tasks are executing fine again and my backends aren't shutting down. It may have been a small issue with the task queue service. My tasks are assigned to specific back end instances so the fact that they kept failing and the backend instances shutdown and come back shows that the task was having an error connecting to the backend which caused it to just shutdown due to inactivity, and finally when the task queue started connecting again, the instances came back up.
