[syslog-ng] syntax error when using syslog-ng.conf from debian packaging

[Alexandre Santos]

 Hi,
Sorry for the late reply.

In fact variable tty10 is not set in my environment.
I am using debian 9, syslog-ng version 3.24.1
I am creating my own debian package using the CMakeFile in attachment.
I am using the configuration file:
https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/blob/master/packaging/debian/syslog-ng.conf

Cheers,
Alex
