New TSDB schema causes Loki to fail

Grafana Loki
1

I wanted to enable the new tsdb index store. So I created a new schema. Notice that at the time of running this configuration, the from date is in the future.

        schema_config:
          configs:
            - from: "2022-01-01"
              store: boltdb
              object_store: filesystem
              schema: v11
              index:
                prefix: index_
                period: 168h
#            - from: "2023-06-20"
#              store: tsdb
#              object_store: gcs
#              schema: v12
#              index:
#                prefix: index_
#                period: 24h # 168h

        storage_config:
          boltdb:
            directory: /index

          filesystem:
            directory: /chunks

          gcs:
            bucket_name: monitoring-001-loki

          tsdb_shipper:
            active_index_directory: /tsdb-index
            shared_store: gcs

When I restart Loki with the updated config, Loki fails with the following errors in the logs:

This seems to be related to an issue on GitHub: Error: “at least one bucket name must be specified”

I finally got it working for me. I do not completely understand what is required, but apparently the storage related configurations are very finicky. If you miss a shared_store parameter in one of the modules or mix up the common.storage settings, the system will fail. The error messages are NOT helpful.
