[syslog-ng] Error while spawning the syslog-ng : "source plugin system not found "

[Girish Kumar]

No I don’t have systemd or libsystemd-journal.so.   I have checked in /lib , sbin. I have not found here.
Please let  me know how to check this? Also let me know what is the role of system () . Is it mandatory to have this?

There was an issue that on newer systemd based platforms the systemd-journal () plugin doesn't load. You should see this on stderrr during startup. It is a pretty recent issue maybe #914?

Do you have systemd? Do you have a separate libsystemd-journal.so or just a monolithic libsystemd.so?

The problem is with supporting the latter one.

Hi Gyu,

My contents is default syslog-ng.conf which is generated after make install

@version: 3.7
@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);
};

And contents of scl.conf
--------------------------
@define scl-root "`syslog-ng-data`/include/scl"
@define include-path "`include-path`:`syslog-ng-data`/include"

@include 'scl/*/*.conf'

What is the exact content of your syslog-ng.conf file?
Did not you forget to include the scl?

Cheers,
