[syslog-ng] is multi-line support available?

[Peter Czanik (pczanik)]

Hi,

Multi-line is not a separate module, but the integral part of several syslog-ng drivers. I do not know from the top of my head where it is supported, but I used it with the wildcard-file source recently. See for example: https://syslog-ng.github.io/admin-guide/060_Sources/030_Wildcard-file/000_Wildcard-file_options#multi-line-mode

Hello,

The available packages for linux do not seem to include "multi-line" and I downloaded the repository from git and tried to build with multi-line and it won't build completely.  I need multiline to support tomcat logs, etc... am I going in the wrong direction?

Thanks,

David
