Since I had macros that didn't expand at all using rc2 I was happy to see the release of rc3. Unfortunately there still are some macro issues in rc3 when using it on Slackware 9.0 The following conf file: destination d_mysql { pipe("/tmp/mysql.pipe" template("INSERT INTO logs (host, facility, priority, level, tag, date, time, program, msg) VALUES ('$HOST', '$FACILITY', '$PRIORITY', '$LEVEL', '$TAG', '$DATE', '$TIME', '$PROGRAM', $MSG');\n") template-escape(yes) ); }; Epand like this INSERT INTO logs (host, facility, priority, level, tag, date, time, program, msg) VALUES ('hansen', 'syslog', 'notice', 'notice', '2d', 'Apr 28 22:23:37', '', 'syslog-ng', syslog-ng[13070]: STATS: dropped 0'); As you can see both date and time are expanded in $DATE and $TIME isn't expanded at all. Result in the database table looks like this: mysql> select * from logs; +--------+----------+----------+--------+------+------------+----------+-----------+------------------------------------+-----+ | host | facility | priority | level | tag | date | time | program | msg | seq | +--------+----------+----------+--------+------+------------+----------+-----------+------------------------------------+-----+ | hansen | syslog | notice | notice | 2d | 0000-00-00 | 00:00:00 | syslog-ng | syslog-ng[13070]: STATS: dropped 0 | 1 | +--------+----------+----------+--------+------+------------+----------+-----------+------------------------------------+-----+ And as you all can see the expanded $DATE returns a value that can't be handled by the mysql date data type. Clues, tips, tricks? Anyone! /p At 09:45 2003-04-26 +0200, you wrote:
