Thanks for the replies guys they have been very helpful!

Here is the  ldd /usr/local/lib/syslog-ng/libafsql.so
        libsyslog-ng.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libsyslog-ng.so.0 (0xb7f3c000)
        libdbi.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libdbi.so.1 (0xb7f30000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0xb7f0e000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7db5000)
        librt.so.1 => /lib/librt.so.1 (0xb7dac000)
        libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0xb7d93000)
        libgmodule-2.0.so.0 => /lib/libgmodule-2.0.so.0 (0xb7d8f000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7d8a000)
        libgthread-2.0.so.0 => /lib/libgthread-2.0.so.0 (0xb7d85000)
        libglib-2.0.so.0 => /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0xb7ce7000)
        libevtlog.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libevtlog.so.0 (0xb7ce3000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7cb9000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fa1000)


I have upgraded the libdbi to the latest, compiled from source and the
message seems to have gone away. Now syslog-ng loads up fine but doesn't
seem to be writing anything to the database! I will run strace and post up
the results shortly, but in the meantime if there are any ideas on what
could be happening I would love to hear.
