Bazsi, I wasn't, but grabbed and installed the bison package and rebuilt and installed the syslog-ng package this morning. I get the same error. Before we spend a lot of time on this though, how will messages look different using keep_hostnames vs chain_hostnames? Will using keep_hostnames get rid of the logging problem I first reported due to src, Message, and last being prepended to the messages?
src@aaaa Message/aaaa.bbbb.cornell.edu last/aaaa.bbbb.cornell.edu
On our AIX server, I'm getting a "Parse error reading configuration file, exiting." when I use the keep_hostnames option. This does not happen on our Solaris instance.
Are you using GNU bison to generate the configuration parser?
