Docker Build throwing a error -"Docker output clipped, log limit 1MiB reached"

Question

While Building my docker Image in Docker Desktop for windows,after some sort of time It throwing a error:

=> => # [output clipped, log limit 1MiB reached]

I tired configuring the log file size in daemon file and restarted the docker service

 "log-driver": "json-file",
 "log-opts": 
{
"max-size": "10m",
 "max-file": "3"
}

But still I'm getting the same error, Any one please advise me on this ?

Does this answer your question? [Is there a way to increase the log size in docker when building a container?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65819424/is-there-a-way-to-increase-the-log-size-in-docker-when-building-a-container) — Brad Koch, Jul 15 '21 at 11:35

Per https://docs.docker.com/config/containers/logging/configure/ it suggests to:

Restart Docker for the changes to take effect for newly created containers. Existing containers do not use the new logging configuration.

Unfortunatelly docker build doesn't support --log-opt max-buffer-size=XXXm, but buildx does

As "the last shoot", you can remove --progress plain if you don't acutally need it

You can use below one-line command when you use buildx:

docker buildx build . --builder "$(docker buildx create --driver-opt env.BUILDKIT_STEP_LOG_MAX_SIZE=10000000 --driver-opt env.BUILDKIT_STEP_LOG_MAX_SPEED=10000000)"

I encountered that happened because buildkit is enabled. So I disabled buildkit and it works fine for me:

"features": {
    "buildkit": false
}

Unfortunately this doesn't work if you use `--mount=type=cache` as that requires BuildKit to be enabled to function. – Konrad Höffner Jun 22 '22 at 09:51

Buildkit does a lot more than truncate logs. To me, it is not acceptable to throw away the build speed gained by buildkit. – lmat - Reinstate Monica Nov 30 '22 at 13:15
