Hi Gergely Have been in touch with steven@openbsd.org, who is the guy that maintains the syslog-ng package and port for OpenBSD. It now looks like he has zeroed in on a Makefile that will permit syslog-ng to write to a MySQL database. He has given me a Makefile that seems to build a binary that works on my system (still having issues with what's being written to the database, but it is writing). He will probably want to do more testing, but I would expect a new release of the package and port that includes the database facility sometime soon (subject to OpenBSD's usual verification process).

I'm having a really hard time trying to find out how to tweak the make file supplied on the ports for syslog-ng v3.1.4, so that I get a binary that supports SQL on OpenBSD.
Any tips would be gratefully received.
You need to remove the --disable-sql line from CONFIGURE_ARGS, and install the libdbi and libdbi-driver ports for a start.
If that doesn't result in a binary that supports SQL, then I'd like to see the config.log, that might give us a hint as to what else is needed.
