Get debug information for Support (Helm)

For CARTO Self-hosted using Kubernetes and Helm

Enterprise CARTO customers have access to the CARTO Support team via a dedicated email address: enterprise-support@carto.com. When contacting the Support team, providing the information described below will allow more agile communication and speed up problem resolution. Please, take into account that the information required by our Support team depends on your deployment method:

  • A video capture of the error (a GIF format is preferred to a static image)

  • A .har file + screen capture of the web browser's developer tools console. You can find some information on how to generate this file in the following link.

  • CARTO Support bundle generated by the support bundle tool or logs of the CARTO installation

Please, enable the CARTO Self-Hosted debug mode before generating the support bundle or getting the logs from your CARTO Self-hosted installation. You can find more information about how to do it in this section.

CARTO SH Version 2025.1.10 or newer

Obtain a support bundle from CARTO Self-hosted

The required logs for Kubernetes self-hosted can be obtained using Troubleshoot.sh. Generating a support bundle for an active SH installation just requires executing the following command:

kubectl support-bundle -n <NAMESPACE>

Please, take into account that you'll need the support-bundle plugin installed for kubectl. After executing the previous command, you'll see if there is any failing check in your terminal and the process will generate a bundle in the folder where you ran the command that you can share with CARTO Support team.

If that method doesn't work for you, you can also try to use our support tool to obtain the logs from CARTO Self-Hosted.
