           Summary: syslog-ng doesn't start on windows running in a cygwin
                    environment
           Product: syslog-ng
           Version: 3.2.x
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: unspecified
         Component: syslog-ng
        AssignedTo: bazsi at balabit.hu
        ReportedBy: tps at vr-web.de
Type of the Report: bug
   Estimated Hours: 0.0


After having installed syslog-ng and given dependencies, I've configured with

/usr/bin/syslog-ng-config

No errors that far. Then started it with "net start syslog-ng":
  $ net start syslog-ng
  CYGWIN syslog-ng wird gestartet.
  CYGWIN syslog-ng konnte nicht gestartet werden.

  Der Dienst hat keinen Fehler gemeldet.

  Sie erhalten weitere Hilfe, wenn Sie NET HELPMSG 3534 eingeben.

syslog-ng did not start. Trying to start with "cygrunsvc -S syslog-ng":
  $ cygrunsrv.exe -S syslog-ng
  cygrunsrv: Error starting a service: QueryServiceStatus:  Win32 error 1062:
  Der Dienst wurde nicht gestartet.

Same as above. Again no usefull error message. Next I tried to start
syslog-ng directly with the paramaters passed by cygrunsvc:
  $ /usr/sbin/syslog-ng.exe -F
  Error opening plugin module; module='afsocket', error='No such process'
  Error opening plugin module; module='afsocket', error='No such process'
  Error parsing source, source plugin unix-dgram not found in source confgen system at line 1, column 1:
                                                included from /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf line 10, column 9

  unix-dgram
  ^^^^^^^^^^

  syslog-ng documentation: http://www.balabit.com/support/documentation/?product=syslog-ng
  mailing list: https://lists.balabit.hu/mailman/listinfo/syslog-ng

The service does not start because of errors while loading modules.

Given "-V" syslog-ng reports:
  $ /usr/sbin/syslog-ng.exe -V
  syslog-ng 3.2.5

The generated config-file "/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf" holds:
  $ cat /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf
  #############################################################################
  # Default syslog-ng.conf file which collects all local logs into a
  # single file called /var/log/messages.
  #

  @version: 3.2
  @include "scl.conf"

  source s_local {
          system();
          internal();
  };

  source s_network {
          udp();
  };

  destination d_local {
          file("/var/log/messages");
  };

  log {
          source(s_local);

          # uncomment this line to open port 514 to receive messages
          #source(s_network);
          destination(d_local);
  };

Looks like a bug analyzing the installed files correctly and creating a not working setup.
