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.

which syslog-ng version are you using? both unix-dgram/unix-stream
destinations should work on Linux.
