I'm using syslog-ng 1.6.11 Neither of the following lines works: destination s_dgram { unix-dgram("/tmp/log.socket"); }; destination d_unix_stream { unix-stream("/var/run/logs"); }; For both, used separately, the error is: CONSOLE: sudo /etc/init.d/syslog-ng stop sudo /etc/init.d/syslog-ng start Starting system logging: syslog-ngSegmentation fault (core dumped) start failed. Many thanks. Bruno. On 3/2/07, Balazs Scheidler <bazsi@balabit.hu> wrote:

Hello fellows.
I will try to be brief with my question. I am integrating a team that is developing a system where syslog will receive messages and according to some match expressions will have to send those messages to another process.
So, to do this, I have tried unix-dgram. I use Linux Ubuntu and what happens is that when I reload or stop/start syslog I get CORE DUMPED. I have made some research in the documents trying to find out the reason. What I understood was that unix.dgram only works in BSD.
Is this the truth?
My solution so far is to use a named pipe instead of an unix datagram socket.
Tell me your opinion please.
which syslog-ng version are you using? both unix-dgram/unix-stream destinations should work on Linux.
