Hi, I'm trying to install syslog-ng 1.6.4 in  Solaris 2.7.
The binaries install and works OK, but the messages appear to be truncated.
By example the following sentece:

destination d_mysql {
 file("/var/log/dblog/fulllog.$YEAR.$MONTH.$DAY.$HOUR.$MIN.$SEC"
     template("INSERT INTO logs (host, facility, priority, level, tag,
date, time, program, msg)
                          VALUES ( '$HOST', '$FACILITY',
'$PRIORITY','$LEVEL', '$TAG','$YEAR-$MONTH-$DAY','$HOUR:$MIN:$SEC',
'$PROGRAM', \n '$MESSAGE' );\n")
      owner(root) group(root) perm(0600)
      dir_perm(0700) create_dirs(yes)
      template-escape(yes));
};

In the log it appears without the ");\n" (last 3 characters),  so the
insert in the mysql doesn't work. I do the test in with the following
destination:

template("-$MSG--")

In this case the last character "-" doesn't appear.

Any idea?
Does syslog have a buffer problem?

Thanks in advance,

HC
