      Before this update, the OpenShift Web Console UI could incorrectly highlight informational log messages as errors when they contained certain keywords such as “error,” causing confusion during log review. With this update, the log level determination logic has been refactored to use a multi-stage parsing pipeline, ensuring that messages are accurately classified and only true errors are highlighted as such.

    • Moderate

      Description of problem:

      The OpenShift Web Console UI incorrectly highlights log messages at the info level as errors when they contain specific keywords like 'error'. This behavior leads to confusion when reviewing logs, as messages that are purely informational appear visually as errors.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      4.x

      How reproducible:

      Always

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Generate an info level log message that contains the word error     
      2. View the logs in the main console UI (not the console pod logs)     
      3. Observe that the log entry is highlighted in red as if it were an error     

      Actual results:

      The log message is highlighted in red, despite being info level.

      Expected results:

      Log messages at the info level should not be visually highlighted as errors, regardless of their content.

      Additional info:

      Impact:
      Increased noise in console
      Difficulty in distinguishing real errors from informational messages
