Hi Jerry,

The command should look something like: `syslog-ng-ctl debug --set=off`. Note the double dash before `set`.

Cheers,
Attila

Hi,
We are chasing an intermittent bug with slow reloads. We are following the debug suggestions and adding -dv to the execstart in the service file. Because of the load of messages that we push, I want to turn off the debugging after we are past the window when the slow reload happens. I naively tried doing "syslog-ng-ctl debug set=off" but it responded that the flag didn't change.
Is there some way to tell syslog-ng to allow the -ctl command to make the change. I can imagine why this would be desired sometimes, but at 10k lines per minute it is going to fill up /tmp.
right now I am doing ugly things to solve the problem, but really want to find a better way.
thanks,
jerry
