[syslog-ng] Expanding $PROGRAM and $FACILIITY macros with empty log messges

[Jason Edgecombe]

hi all,

i'm running syslog-ng-1.4.2 and I am having a problem with macro
expansion
an blank log message causes the problem. here is an excerpt from my
logs:

note, mathlog-pc is our central logging server, it is also running
syslog-ng (same version) but is UDP forwarding all logs to the log
server

Apr  5 08:28:40 src@fret340f-pc/fret340f-pc 
Apr  5 08:28:40 src@mathlog-pc syslog-ng[1793]: Cannot open file
/var/log/syslog-ng/2000/04/05/fret340f-pc/p/ for writing (Is a
directory)
Apr  5 08:28:40 src@fret340f-pc/fret340f-pc syslog-ng[4481]: Cannot open
file /var/log/syslog-ng/2000/04/05/fret340f-pc/ for writing (Is a
directory)




Any help on this is appreciated.

Thanks,
Jason
