The second instance youre trying to launch is using the first instance's
config.
Error initializing source driver; source='src', id='src#0'
From that message you can see its trying to initialize the source
callced 'src'. In your second config, your source is called 's_node',
the first instance is called 'src'. Make sure youre passing the proper
'-f' option to syslog-ng when you start it.
Pretty sure I am.
It's the second config (the one for the "main" instance) which has a
source called "src". It's the proxy one (the first one) which has a
source called "s_node".
The start for the proxy uses -f <special-proxy-conf> whereas the start
for the main one just lets it default to syslog-ng.conf.
