I just loaded Syslog-ng 1.6.0rc3 on a SuSE 8.2 linux box.  I have successfully been running version 1.6.0rc1 on another LFS box for months.  I took my config from the box running 1.6.0rc1 and put it on the new box.  I get an error on the options.  Did something change in the format or something with the options?  I didn't see anything in the documentation that said formating or options changed.  The daemon does run, but kicks out this for error:

 

syslog1:~ # /etc/init.d/syslog-ng start
/etc/init.d/syslog-ng: /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: line 12: syntax error near unexpected token `('
/etc/init.d/syslog-ng: /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf: line 12: `options { long_hostnames(off); use_fqdn(yes); use_dns(yes); dns_cache(yes); keep_hostname(yes); use_time_recvd(yes); sync(0); };'
Starting Syslog-ng                                                                                                                                done

 

Everything looks right to me and it works fine on another box running 1.6.0rc1.  Can anyone see the problem?  I must be missing something little.

Thanks,
