We use syslog-ng 1.6.12 in RHEL4. As part of our system testing we restart syslog-ng 150 times in a loop along with other services in the server.
syslog-ng fails to come up 3/4 times with the error : "io.c: bind_inet_socket() bind failed 192.168.128.1:601 Address already in use".
How do you restart syslog-ng? It takes some time to close sources/ destinations and there is a chance that the new syslog-ng instance tries to bind to the same address the not-yet-stopped instance still uses.
Does syslog-ng use SO_REUSEADDR option ?
Of course. -- Bazsi
