[syslog-ng] Syslog-NG/Log Analyzer

[James McDonald]

I finally got my syslog-ng servers to pass logs to the MySQL db, but was
having some problems getting LogAnalzyer to access the db. I re-installed
Log Analyzer but now I am getting an access denied error: Connection to the
database server failed.  Access denied for user
'syslog'@'FQDN_for_mysql_server.com' (using password: YES).

Here is the output of the grants for the 'syslog' user:



CODE:  <http://kb.monitorware.com/> SELECT ALL

mysql> show grants for 'syslog'@'FQDN_for_mysql_server.com';
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------+
| Grants for syslog at FQDN_for_mysql_server.com
|
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------+
| GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'syslog'@'FQDN_for_mysql_server.com'
|
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `Syslog`.* TO 'syslog'@'FQDN_for_mysql_server.com'
|
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------+
2 rows in set (0.00 sec)



And here is what my config.php looks like:

$CFG['DefaultSourceID'] = 'Source1';

$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['ID'] = 'Source1';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['Name'] = 'Syslog';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['ViewID'] = 'SYSLOG';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['SourceType'] = SOURCE_DB;
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBTableType'] = 'syslogng';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBType'] = DB_MYSQL;
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBServer'] = 'ustc-mysql';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBName'] = 'Syslog';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBUser'] = 'syslog';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBPassword'] = 'pTRl819ELI0viRmXaEUO';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBTableName'] = 'SystemEvents';
$CFG['Sources']['Source1']['DBEnableRowCounting'] = false;
