After receiving your answer, I have tried a lot of configuration ways to make my syslog-ng to run on Coosbay server. But it failed at last. Then I compile and install syslog-ng-1.6rc3 on Langley server with RH7.3. Put sample config file into use. Everything seems so fine. I am now happy with syslog-ng. I am not sure about the difference between Coosbay and Langley. But syslog-ng does have some problems running on coosbay server. I don't know why. thanks zhen -----Original Message----- From: Hamilton Andrew [mailto:Andrew.Hamilton@afccc.af.mil] Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2003 8:20 PM To: syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu Subject: RE: [syslog-ng]src/tests/testall failed! I have 8 Redhat 7.3 systems running syslog-ng with that very source statement, except I use unix-dgram, and it works fine. Have you stopped klogd? Are you chroot-ing? Why don't you post your entire config file? That may help us help you more.

Can you tell me why the script does not work? On my RH7.3, syslog-ng.conf.Redhat is not working fine. source s_sys { pipe ("/proc/kmsg" log_prefix("kernel: ")); unix-stream ("/dev/log"); internal(); }; $syslog-ng Error opening file /proc/kmsg for reading (No such file or directory) Error initializing configuration, exiting. Is there something in system I should tune? zhen -----Original Message----- From: Balazs Scheidler [mailto:bazsi@balabit.hu] Sent: Monday, August 18, 2003 9:21 PM To: syslog-ng@lists.balabit.hu Subject: Re: [syslog-ng]src/tests/testall failed!

After I have successfully compiled syslog-ng-1.0.6rc3, I run src/tests/testall script but it failed.

that script was written years ago and may not function correctly. -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1 _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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 _______________________________________________ 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
