3.01 facility(syslog) returns an error
Continuing with my 3.01 install. My .conf files contains on line 61: filter fprinceton_syslog { facility(syslog); }; [root@princeton src]# ./syslog-ng -s syntax error in /usr/local/etc/syslog-ng.conf at line 61. However, if I change that to the numeric equivalent: filter fprinceton_syslog { facility(5); }; [root@princeton src]# ./syslog-ng -s [root@princeton src]# the error goes away. -- Tim Boyer Denman Tire Corporation
Hi,
Continuing with my 3.01 install. My .conf files contains on line 61:
filter fprinceton_syslog { facility(syslog); };
[root@princeton src]# ./syslog-ng -s syntax error in /usr/local/etc/syslog-ng.conf at line 61.
However, if I change that to the numeric equivalent:
filter fprinceton_syslog { facility(5); };
[root@princeton src]# ./syslog-ng -s [root@princeton src]#
the error goes away.
Both issues have been fixed already, but there is no official release containing the fixes. You could pull the fixes from the git tree, see http://www.balabit.com/network-security/syslog-ng/opensource-logging-system/... Regards, Sandor
