Cygnus didn't update database - fiware

Question

I want to subscribe Orion to send notifications to Cygnus. Then cygnus will save all data in mysql database. I use this script to subscribe the speed attribute of car1.
(curl 130.206.118.44:1026/v1/subscribeContext -s -S --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Accept: application/json' --header 'Fiware-Service: vehicles' --header 'Fiware-ServicePath: /4wheels' -d #- | python -mjson.tool) <<EOF
{
"entities": [
{
"type": "car",
"isPattern": "false",
"id": "car1"
}
],
"attributes": [
"speed",
"oil_level"
],
"reference": "http://192.168.1.49:5050/notify",
"duration": "P1M",
"notifyConditions": [
{
"type": "ONCHANGE",
"condValues": [
"speed"
]
}
],
"throttling": "PT1S"
}
EOF
But when I update the speed attribute of car 1, cygnus doesn't update the database.

After read this question, I changed my agent_mysql.conf in this line:
cygnusagent.sinks.mysql-sink.attr_persistence = column to cygnusagent.sinks.mysql-sink.attr_persistence = row and restarted the service. Then I updated orion entity and I queried database and nothing happened.

As you can see in the logs you posted, there is a problem with the Cygnus log file:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: ./logs/cygnus.log (No such file or directory)
After that, Cygnus stops. You must check your configuration regarding log4j, everything is at /usr/cygnus/conf/log4j.properties (it should exists, it is created by the RPM... if not existing -because you italled from sources instead of the RPM-, it must be created from the available template). In addition, can you post your instance configuration file? Anyway, which version are you running?
EDIT 1
Recently, we have found another user dealing with the same error, and the problem was the content of the /usr/cygnus/conf/log4j.properties file was:
flume.root.logger=INFO,LOGFILE
flume.log.dir=./log
flume.log.file=flume.log
Instead of what the template contains:
flume.root.logger=INFO,LOGFILE
flume.log.dir=/var/log/cygnus/
flume.log.file=flume.log
Once changed it worked because the RPM creates /var/log/cygnus but not ./log.
