syslog-ng 3.3.7 RC2 (3.3.6.91) released
Hi! While the 3.3.7 RC1 looked promising, a few more issues turned up meanwhile, so I am releasing an RC2 aswell. With the credits section of the NEWS file being longer than the list of fixes, my hope is that the 3.3.7 final release (due october 31) will not be much more than a version bump. As usual, testing this release candidate and reporting any and all issues found with it - be those regressions or anything else - would be greatly appreciated! The current state of the NEWS file is included below, and if anyone wants to track how the release is progressing and what needs to be fixed still before the final release, see the 3.3.7 target milestone on bugzilla: https://bugzilla.balabit.com/buglist.cgi?query_format=advanced&target_milest... The release is available from the following sources: GitHub ------ The release is tagged as v3.3.6.91 on the official repository at git://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng-3.3.git A detailed list of commits & changes is available via the compare view: https://github.com/balabit/syslog-ng-3.3/compare/v3.3.6.90...v3.3.6.91 Tarball ------- A make dist tarball built from the same tag is available from my package repository: http://packages.madhouse-project.org/syslog-ng/3.3/3.3.6.91/syslog-ng-3.3.6.... And finally, the NEWS file from the release: 3.3.6.91 (3.3.7 RC2) Mon, 08 Oct 2012 13:00:00 +0200 Bugfixes ======== * The bundled ivykis has been updated, the new version contains a workaround for an issue specific to FreeBSD 9 only. * The file source was corrected to properly handle character devices. This, and the ivykis update fixes a CPU spinning issue on FreeBSD. [#201] * The sun-streams module had a file descriptor leak, which has been corrected too. [#151] * Various minor fixes around the build system. Features ======== * The stats will now list the filename of unix domain sockets. [#195] Credits ======= syslog-ng is developed as a community project, and as such it relies on volunteers to do the work necessarily to produce syslog-ng. Reporting bugs, testing changes, writing code or simply providing feedback are all important contributions, so please if you are a user of syslog-ng, contribute.

As usual, testing this release candidate and reporting any and all issues found with it - be those regressions or anything else - would be greatly appreciated! Did some packaging work and some very basic testing, and it seems to work fine on openSUSE 12.2 and FreeBSD 9.0. Once RC2 packages are available, I'll write again. Bye,

Yes, they're available from my apt repository[1] since last night, under the disguise of syslog-ng 3.3.6.91, for a wide number of Debian and Ubuntu releases. [1]: http://asylum.madhouse-project.org/projects/debian/ -- |8]
I thought the issue with debug logging will be fixed there. Unfortunately it is not. oom_killer still kills syslog-ng after `syslog-ng-ctl debug -s on` even if syslog-ng is not getting any messages from any client and the server has a lot of free memory.

I haven't heard about such an issue until now, I'm afraid. Can you perhaps open a BugZilla[1] ticket, and attach your config? I'll try to reproduce and then fix the problem then. [1]: https://bugzilla.balabit.com/ Thanks in advance! -- |8]
