Any progress / clues on the multiple file-open bug? I'm using a multi-processor (2 CPUs) system, if that perhaps makes a difference. With the 20050704 snapshot I've seen a single file open over 20 times each. -----Original Message----- From: syslog-ng-bounces@lists.balabit.hu [mailto:syslog-ng-bounces@lists.balabit.hu] On Behalf Of Balazs Scheidler Sent: Thursday, June 30, 2005 3:16 AM To: Syslog-ng users' and developers' mailing list Subject: RE: [syslog-ng] Error parsing conf file?

This seems to be an unrelated issue that it opens the same file multiple times. This is no good. I'll look into this as well.

I don't really see how syslog-ng could open the same file twice, unless you had multiple file() destinations which refers to the same file. Is it the case? (judging your posted configuration, it is not, but maybe you did not copy-paste your complete config. -- Bazsi _______________________________________________ syslog-ng maillist - syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu https://lists.balabit.hu/mailman/listinfo/syslog-ng Frequently asked questions at http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/faq.html
