I think you've found a bug in service-management.c:

If you have syslog-ng compiled with --enable-systemd, it will always be the active service-management unit. I thought we addressed this in a patch by jviktor.

Tibor,

Is that code run during compiling/building or at run-time ? Archlinux developers build packages on machines with an archlinux base installation with systemd installed & active . If service-management.c is executed at build-time, that would explain why syslog-ng tries to use systemd on my system.

Given the multi-platform support of syslog-ng i would expect such checks to be executed at run-time .

Also, you might want to use the system() source, which tries to determine the optimal setup to fetch local messages. So no need to use I unix-dgram or internal directly.

Balazs, thanks for the tip. After the problem is fixed, i'll look into using that.
