<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">…or at the very least, say bad things when the other is not looking :)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I did a bit of googling for this and found other people with similar issues, but could not find the fix.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">This is on a cos7.0 box (not 7.2) running syslog-ng v3.9 (user did have v3.5 but I tried upgrading him to resolve this).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">If I run syslog-ng -Fdve it works fine and sends everything to our python program destination<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">However, if I use the systemd script provided with syslog-ng, then I get nothing.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">If I tell sng to just log to a file (no filters, etc.), then it works.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">If I tell sng to just use the program dest (no filters, etc.) it does NOT work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">If I do a 'systemctl stop syslog-ng' and then just simply type 'syslog-ng' (no foreground, debug, etc. switches) from the command line, it works fine.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Rather confusing, but I can't see why the systemctl file is not working as it should.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Any ideas?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
