<font size="-1"><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Just FYI, the
patches in that post are REALLY bad. They dont use optimized queries
and every single insert statement performs a commit. If you will be
doing a high amount of transactions, this will devour your database's
processing power.<br>
Also as that patch is for libdbi, it will affect every single thing
that uses libdbi, not just syslog-ng.<br>
See <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://bugzilla.balabit.com/show_bug.cgi?id=73">https://bugzilla.balabit.com/show_bug.cgi?id=73</a>. Syslog-ng 3.2 will
have changes in it that make those patches unnecessary.<br>

<pre wrap="">You wont be able to compile syslog-ng 3 on a rhel4 without ugly changes
to the system (like glib). The easiest way is to just download the
oracle 0.8.1 driver and compile it instead of 0.8.3.

<pre wrap=""> Oracle driver was added to shared libraryes cache:
[root@vm-dc-syslog doc]# ldconfig -p|grep dbi
libdbi.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/local/libdbi/lib/libdbi.so.0

Now I hardlinked oracle driver to /opt/syslog-ng/lib/dbd/, but
without success. Is it from difference of libdbi versions - in rpm
and 0.8.3 compiled by me?
I tried to compile syslog-ng from tarball and with same libdbi as in
oracle driver case, but 'configure' cancel his work with strange
error:
checking for GLIB - version >= 2.10.1... no
*** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.
*** See <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/">http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/</a>
configure: error: Cannot find GLIB version >= 2.10.1: is pkg-config in
path?

<pre wrap=""> Hello!
I took stable binary rpm with open source syslog-ng version 3.0.6 on
balabit.hu and install it on rhel 4u7. For some reason it does not
want to work with oracle backend. I try next bekend description in
syslog-ng.conf:
destination d_oracle_syslog {
sql(type(oracle)
username("login")
password("password")
database("database")
table("table")
columns("DATE varchar2(24)",
"facility number(2)",
"LEVEL number(1)",
"host varchar2(128)",
"program varchar2(64)",
"pid number(8)",
"message varchar2(1024)")
indexes( "DATE","facility","host")
);
};
And after start syslog-ng post in /var/log/messages notes about
failure:
Apr 30 18:35:47 vm-dc-syslog syslog-ng[9815]: No such DBI driver;
type='oracle'
Apr 30 18:35:47 vm-dc-syslog syslog-ng[9815]: No such DBI driver;
type='oracle'
Apr 30 18:35:47 vm-dc-syslog syslog-ng[9815]: No such DBI driver;
type='oracle'
After this issue appear, I compile libdbi and libdbi-drivers version
0.8.3. But it did not help: syslog-ng continue write "No such DBI
driver; type='oracle'". And the same happens with the syslog-ng
versions 3.1.1 and 3.1.0.
I install syslog-ng with binary rpm's from <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.balabit.com">www.balabit.com</a>.
Tell me, please, how I may fix this issue.
Regards,
Dmitry Sedov.
