Hi List
syslog-ng 3.5.6 fails to start up on a newly installed CentOS 7 server:
Environment details:
OS: 3.10.0-327.10.1.el7.x86_64 Distro: CentOS Linux release 7.2.1511 (Core) Syslog-ng: syslog-ng-3.5.6-3.el7.x86_64
I'm doing a fresh install on CentOS linux and installing syslog ng from epel-release repo. syslog-ng fails to start up via systemd as follows:
systemctl restart syslog-ng
Job for syslog-ng.service failed because a fatal signal was delivered to the control process. See "systemctl status syslog-ng.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
Looking at journalctl -xe output:
- Unit syslog-ng.service has failed.

-- The result is failed.

Would anyone know how to fix this, or if this is a bug?
Thanks in advance, Traiano
