Re: [syslog-ng] I/O error occurred while writing; fd=\'6\', error=\'Connection refused (111)\'

Wouldn't things be a lot easier to trouble shoot if syslog-ng just logged the destination name rather than, or in addition to the fd number. Something like

syslog-ng: I/O error occurred while writing; destination=d_unitylab; error=\'Connection refused (111)\'

I have this problem all of the time, I can not tell which destination is having the problem, and since syslog-ng closes the channel when the error occurs, using lsof is of little help.

You are right of course, it's not that easy to implement and so far I was lazy :) Can you please file a bugreport on this? Thanks. -- Bazsi
