Hello all, I'm configuring syslog-ng 2.0 on a RHEL ES 4 U4 system. One of the destination is an unix stream socket. After the first log writen on this socket, I get the error message : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nov 27 11:32:30 ch-syslog-1 syslog-ng[10153]: I/O error occurred while writing; fd='8', error='Connection refused (111)' Nov 27 11:32:30 ch-syslog-1 syslog-ng[10153]: Connection broken; time_reopen='10' ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I checked the socket with a thin client (perl script) and that's working (whitout restart socket server of course), so I assume this issue comes from syslog-ng, but syslog-ng works as root ... I'm little bit confusing ... Hereby the the dest, template and options configurations. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- options { sync (0); time_reopen (10); log_fifo_size (1000); long_hostnames (off); use_dns (no); use_fqdn (no); create_dirs (no); keep_hostname (yes); flush_lines(1); flush_timeout(5000); }; template t_test { template ("$R_STAMP;$S_STAMP;$HOST;$FACILITY;$LEVEL;$PROGRAM;$MSGONLY\n"); }; destination d_test { file("/var/log/test.log" template(t_test)); unix-stream('/var/tmp/syslog_generic.soc' template(t_test));}; --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Many thx for your help Ciao patrick
