Dear Krishna, Seems that there is conflict in your installation. To install syslog-ng I recommend that u first install the libol. get the libol tar.gz file from the http://www.balabit.hu/en/downloads/syslog-ng/downloads/ . Choose suitable one. After installing the libol, proceed with the syslog-ng installation. Any difficulties? Do write it in again.
