Hello,

When I start the service at client, I'm getting the following error
Starting syslog servicesError opening file for reading; filename='/some/file.log', error='Permission denied (13)'

The file /some/file.log has -rw-rw-rw- permissions

You should try to disable AppArmor (rcapparmor stop), and if it helps, then add the file to /etc/apparmor.d/sbin.syslog-ng
Bye,
