Mongodb wasn’t listed…I’ll go from there.

Thanks for your help!

Hello,

You can check the available modules with the following command: syslog-ng -V
Probably you will not find mongodb in the list of modules.
If you compile from source syslog-ng try to detect the mongodb client header files. If it doesn't find a proper one, syslog-ng will be compiling without the mongodb destination driver.
So you have to install the proper header file and compile syslog-ng again.

If you use ubuntu/debian distro the following command may help: sudo apt-get install libmongo-client-dev


I hope it helps,
Br,
Laci

Hi,
 Can you tell what I'm doing wrong here?  I entered destination mongodb { mongodb(); };
log { source(src); destination(mongodb); }; in syslogng.conf as in the directions and this is what happens:

user at syslog:~/syslogng-web$ sudo service syslog-ng restart

destination mongodb { mongodb() ; };
                 ^^^^^^^
