<br>One thing that occured to me, can you change the config to use the system() source instead of /dev/log?
<br>
<br>that should 'magically' do the right thing.
<br>

<br>----- Original message -----
<br>> Hello list.
<br>>
<br>> I'm unable to run syslog-ng, whatever the version (I tried 3.3.6 and
<br>> 3.4.1), on a recent system using systemd (mageia cauldron 64 bits,
<br>> systemd 195). As soon as I'm launching syslog-ng, systemd and
<br>> systemd-journal cpu usages reach 80/95%, and systemd fill dmesg log with
<br>> this kind of message:
<br>> [ 5962.484250] systemd[1]: syslog-ng.service start request repeated too
<br>> quickly, refusing to start
<br>>
<br>> I tried to disable journald, but i didn't suceed. I also found
<br>> indication of using the journald socket ( /run/systemd/journal/syslog)
<br>> instead of /dev/log in syslog-ng configuration, but it doesn't change
<br>> much. Also, the fedora package for syslog-ng doesn't contains anything
<br>> special, either in default configuration, or in systemd service unit
<br>> (excepted a patch to force pid file location). So, I'm a bit lost here...
<br>>
<br>> There is a user bug report on this issue:

<br>> BOFH excuse #223:

<br>> The lines are all busy (busied out, that is -- why let them in to begin
<br>> with?).
