Hi, thanks for letting us know about this issue. Do you mind including the job configuration where you see this error?

[c4milo]

@chelseakomlo hi! sure, here is an example job file that reproduces the issue:

job "test" {
	type = "service"
	region = "global"
	datacenters = ["dc1"]

	update {
		max_parallel     = 1
		canary           = 5
		min_healthy_time = "30s"
		healthy_deadline = "10m"
		auto_revert      = true
	}

	group "mygroup" {
		count = 2

		task "mytask" {
			driver = "exec"

			config {
				command = "/bin/sleep"
				args 	= ["1"]
			}

			resources {
				network {
					mbits = 1
					port "mytask" {}
				}
			}

			service {
				port = "mytask"

				check {
					type     = "tcp"
					port     = "mytask"
					interval = "10s"
					timeout  = "2s"
				}
				check_restart {
					limit = 3
					grace = "90s"
					ignore_warnings = false
				}
			}
		}
	}
}

Thanks for the update @c4milo! #3718 will fix it, but since it might not make it into a release for a while #3716 is going to (temporarily) remove that feature from the documentation.

Until the next release you'll have to put the check_restart stanza inside the check stanza.

Fixed but forgot to close. Sorry!
