Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Gordon, read your mail around the same time I was experiencing this issue, saved me some troubleshooting. Bazsi, your method of adding a -f to the start_daemon call also fixes this problem for me on debian. -Lance On Thu, Dec 3, 2009 at 9:01 AM, Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> wrote:
Hi,
We have an alternative solution for the same problem, waiting for a release to happen.
Can you check if this one works for you too?
This adds a -f to the start_daemon call.

Hello,
I'm running the syslog-ng 3.0.4 RPM on CentOS 5.4 and came across a problem where syslog-ng would not start properly after an unclean shutdown, since the old PID file was still in place. Attached is a patch to the init script supplied with the RPM that attempts to correct this.
