I updated my freeBSD server running syslog-ng 1.4.12 to syslog-ng 1.5.23. I installed the new libol 0.3.5 prior to the upgrade. It seemed to have installed correctly with no errors. However when I try to start the program I revieve this message:

absys# /usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng -v
binding fd 3, inetaddr: 0.0.0.0, port: 514
binding fd 5, inetaddr: 0.0.0.0, port: 514
unresolved reference: DEFAULT
Error initializing configuration, exiting.

I thought this must be related to the options I have chosen in my configuration file. Here is the top section of my syslog-ng.conf file, where I define my options:

absys# vi /usr/local/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf

#syslog-ng configuration.
#
# what the default options are for files that it writes
#
options { sync(0); time_reopen(10); log_fifo_size(100); };
