I am trying to setup Syslog-NG t send output to Kakka. I am running ubuntu 18.04, Syslog-NG version 3.37.



This is my syslog-ng.conf   ( I have #scl.conf because if I don’t it tries to install kafka-java)





@version: 3.37

@define kafka-implementation kafka-c

#@include "scl.conf"



destination d_kafka {

  kafka(

    bootstrap-servers("127.0.0.1:9092")

    topic("{incoming}")

  );

};





This is the error when I try and run sudo syslog-ng



Error parsing config, syntax error, unexpected LL_IDENTIFIER, expecting '}' in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:6:3-6:8:

1       @version: 3.37

2       @define kafka-implementation kafka-c

3       #@include "scl.conf"

8           topic("{incoming}")

9         );

10      };



Any help will be appreciated.
