HI All,

Iam using syslog-ng3.2.5 rpm in centos x86_64 environment.Past days it is working well.Suddenly iam seeing a problem in writing to mysql

Error running SQL query; type='mysql', host='192.168.9.68', port='3306', user='cygnet', database='CygNetDB', error='1072: Key column \'date\' doesn\'t exist in table', query='CREATE INDEX SYSLOGS_20131130_date_idx ON SYSLOGS_20131130 (date)'

The reason here is as the error says: there's no 'date' column on the table you're trying to create an index for. You may wish to check that the fields specified in your indexes() setting actually exist in fields() too.

Error running SQL query; type='mysql', host='192.168.9.68', port='3306', user='cygnet', database='CygNetDB', error='1170: BLOB/TEXT column \'facility\' used in key specification without a key length', query='CREATE INDEX SYSLOGS_20131130_facility_idx ON SYSLOGS_20131130 (facility)'

This is another error, which should be fairly clear from the error message: the facility column is of BLOB/TEXT type, but with no length specified, and your mysql seems to need a length. You can alter the table to add an explicit length, and the problem should go away. Why it started to happen now, and not before, is another question. The most likely reason would be a MySQL upgrade, or a config change. -- |8]
