Hi, I have tried this with 3.3.7 and even with this version the syslog-ng daemon hangs...( the prompt is not received back). # /opt/soe/local/syslog-ng-3.3.6/sbin/syslog-ng -f /opt/soe/local/syslog_ng/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf -p /var/run/syslog-ng.pid (prompt is not returned back) The process though seems to be running # ps -ef|grep -i syslog root 3456 3450 0 04:47:16 pts/4 0:00 grep -i syslog root 3445 6926 47 04:46:14 pts/2 1:02 /opt/soe/local/syslog-ng-3.3.6/sbin/syslog-ng -f /opt/soe/local/syslog_ng/etc/s # Below is the debug output. # /opt/soe/local/syslog-ng-3.3.7/sbin/syslog-ng -Fvde nanosleep() is not accurate enough to introduce minor stalls on the reader side, multi-threaded performance may be affected;

Hi All,
I have compiled the syslog-ng version 3.3.6 on a Solaris Sparc machine . The compilation went through fine but when I try to run syslog-ng .. though the daemon gets running somehow the unix prompt is not returned.. and it hangs...
Is there another syslogd running, perhaps? That can easily lock up syslog-ng. If not, then I'd like to ask you to try syslog-ng 3.3.7, as a few Solaris-related fixes went into that version, which might fix the problem you're experiencing.
If not, then running truss on the process, and/or the output of syslog-ng -Fvde would be useful to see.
