I installed syslog-ng-3.2.4 from source on Debian Lenny and when I start syslog-ng with /usr/local/syslog-ng/sbin/ syslog-ng it shows me this error: Error creating persistent state file; filename='/usr/local/syslog-ng/var/syslog-ng.persist-', error='No such file or directory (2)'

Create the /usr/local/syslog-ng/var directory, and this error should go away. -- |8]
