-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is there a known issue with syslog-ng-1.6.0rc3 dumping core when reaping an idle TCP listener? I've had a high-volume syslog-ng server installed and running fine for a couple of months now with rc3, I just started to install syslog-ng on client hosts recently, so I added TCP listener options on the server. If TCP is enabled, syslog-ng dies (dumps core with signal 6) apparently when doing gc on an idle TCP listener. The problem does not happen if I comment out the TCP line: # source s_tcp { tcp( ip(192.168.192.92)); }; I don't see anything in the ChangeLog for rc4 to suggest upgrading would fix this? $ gdb /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng ./syslog-ng.core . . . Core was generated by `syslog-ng'. Program terminated with signal 6, Abort trap. Reading symbols from /usr/libexec/ld.so...done.
