[syslog-ng] syslog-ng events in log timestamping wrong

[Contreras, Gerald (DPS)]

Hi All,

I am very new to syslog-ng via Cygwin.

I am having trouble with MWG proxy logs where individual events inside the log are being timestamped at the rotation time (timestamping at 00:00-00:01AM).
This happens intermittently so the problem isn't constant. I have verified via packet captures that the timestamp is correct up until syslog-ng begins to handle the event and write it to the log.

My syslog-ng.conf is as follows

===============================================================
@version: 3.2

@include "scl.conf"


options {

    create_dirs(yes);

    use_dns(yes);

    dns_cache_hosts(/etc/hosts);

    dns_cache_expire(3600);

    chain_hostnames(0);

    log_fifo_size(512);

    perm(0644);

    dir_perm(0755);

    time_reopen(10);

    time_reap(360);

    use_fqdn(no);

    keep_hostname(no);

    stats_freq(0);

};


source s_network {

    udp(port("514"));

};


destination s_files {

    file("/cygdrive/d/syslog/$HOST/$HOST-$MONTH-$DAY.log" create_dirs(yes));

};

log { source(s_network); destination(s_files); };
==============================================================

Thanks. Any help or direction would be much appreciated
