[syslog-ng] syslog-ng unable to starts

[mailing list]

syslog-ng 2.0.4, Solaris 10, attempting to replace syslogd on Solaris.  I
stopped syslogd before starting syslog-ng on my system and I keep getting the
below error messages in /var/adm/messages: (ps -ef shows syslog-ng is running)

Aug 23 14:39:52 server1 syslog-ng[7764]: Connection failed; error='Connection
refused (146)'
Aug 23 14:39:52 server1 syslog-ng[7764]: Initiating connection failed,
reconnecting; time_reopen='10'

I've edited /etc/inet/services to include port 5140 and stop/start inetd via
Solaris smf (svcadm).  Was there something else I need to make the port open or
perhaps something in syslog-ng.conf?

Additionally, I used the config file from
http://www.campin.net/syslog-ng/solaris-conf.txt and only make changes to the
"destination loghost" is there anything specific to Solaris 10 that I need to
add/remove in the configuration file?

Thank you for any pointers.

Regards,

-- Mike
