[syslog-ng] mongodb not found in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf at line 30, column 23:

[Laci Mészáros]

Hello,

You can check the available modules with the following command: syslog-ng -V
Probably you will not find mongodb in the list of modules.
If you compile from source syslog-ng try to detect the mongodb client
header files. If it doesn't find a proper one, syslog-ng will be compiling
without the mongodb destination driver.
So you have to install the proper header file and compile syslog-ng again.

If you use ubuntu/debian distro the following command may help: sudo
apt-get install libmongo-client-dev


I hope it helps,
Br,
Laci
