Hi,
I setup syslog-ng.conf with this setings to let create the stream:
source src_chroot_appli { unix-stream("/var/appli/dev/log"); };
It works and create the socket.
then i config the application log stream path to /dev/log (as the application is chrooted, the root directory is already /var/appli, so logging to /dev/log is ok )
then the configuration to log it in the appli.log file in the /var/log/ outside the chroot :
destination appli_log { file("/var/log/appli.log"); };
then
log { source(src_chroot_appli); destination(appli_log); };
But nothing is created in the /var/log directory (outside chroot).
Btw: syslog-ng version is 1.6.9
Could you trace the application? It would be really good to see how does it try to log. The best would be to start it under strace.
