Thanks for the quick reply, However I'm using the "syslog-ng.conf" as below;
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
options { sync (0);
          time_reopen (10);
          log_fifo_size (1000);
          long_hostnames (off);
          use_dns (no);
          use_fqdn (no);
          create_dirs (yes);
          keep_hostname (yes);
        };

source s_sys { file ("/proc/kmsg" log_prefix("kernel: ")); unix-stream ("/dev/log"); internal(); };
#Everything going to one location
destination d_syslognglog { file("/var/adm/messages-ng"); };
log { source(s_sys); destination(d_syslognglog); };
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:And I've tried with unix-dgram , but stuck up with the same problem. I'll very thankful for any help.
 
Regards

Please show how is /dev/log configured in your syslog-ng.conf

I suppose you're using unix-dgram not unix-stream, and the program
you're trying to use doesn't handle this case.
