Hi,


I had a problem similar to this on one of my FreeBSD servers. There was a patch 
for the syslog-ng port that disabled the template option. Make sure that you do 
NOT have the file patch-cfg-lex.l in your files directory under the syslog-ng 
port tree. Instead you should see patch-cfg-grammer.h (and a couple of other 
valid patches)
