Disabling apparmor is just a workaround. The solution is to add the
files to AppArmor. If you read from the file, then a line like this to
/etc/apparmor.d/sbin.syslog-ng:
/some/file.log r,
If it's a destination outside of /var/log, then a line like this:
/some/file.dest rw,
This way your applications are still protected by AppArmor, but
syslog-ng can reach files outside of /var/log
Bye,
CzP
