<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Hi!</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">After searching
why a log-message doesnt got the right destination path, I propably got
a bit crossed up with the flag(final) statement, perhaps someone can enlight
me :-)</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Following scenario
(no valid syntax, only for description)</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">filter(f_a) {
match("something");};</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">destination(d_a)
{ file("/destination_a"); }:</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">destination(d_b)
{ file("/destination_b"); }:</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">destination(d_c)
{ file("/destination_c"); }:</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">log {</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
source(s_remote_default_syslog_udp);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
if filter(f_a) {</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
destination(d_a);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
flag(final);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
}</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
else</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
{</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
destination(d_b);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
flag(final);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
};</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">
destination(d_c);</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Courier New">};</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">What I expect
is if filter->f_a hits the message is written in destination->d_a
(what he do), then hits the final, and ends the log-statement</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">What I discovered
he also write destination->d_c </span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Is that the expected
behaviour? And if so, how to accomplish, that e.g. if the if or the else
part hit, no destination -> d_c is written.</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Yeah I know, why
the destination->d_c :-), correct I stumbled over this, normally after
such a if/elif/else-Block I dunno have this destination->d_c line in
my syslog-ng environments.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Only a bit courious
about it and seeking for an explanation.</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">cheers</span>
