Claudio,

Thanks for the information, will digest it and consider.  I appreciate the link, it looks like what I have downloaded, though I cannot download from the link.

Thanks again!

Try one of these 2 options:

1. syslog-ng version 3.35.1 (older)

subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-9-$(arch)-rpms

dnf install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-9.noarch.rpm__;!!I2XIyG2ANlwasLbx!X2LR3UP1KUceydLrE6YTLXL8xb6S7cNRPqzXR5vdr4xY76fRqG5Gr5yI3QNyS3A1J5B2flxSXHe8$>

dnf repolist                           # show repositories

dnf search syslog-ng

dnf install syslog-ng                  # confirm with a y to start installation, then another y to accept the GPG key

syslog-ng is now installed and enabled to auto-start at boot time but not started yet.

2. syslog-ng version 4.8.1 (current)

source: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng48/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng48/__;!!I2XIyG2ANlwasLbx!X2LR3UP1KUceydLrE6YTLXL8xb6S7cNRPqzXR5vdr4xY76fRqG5Gr5yI3QNyS3A1J5B2fsE8dNuJ$>

This is the latest stable version of syslog-ng.

cd /etc/yum.repos.d/

wget https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng48/repo/epel-9/czanik-syslog-ng48-epel-9.repo<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/czanik/syslog-ng48/repo/epel-9/czanik-syslog-ng48-epel-9.repo__;!!I2XIyG2ANlwasLbx!X2LR3UP1KUceydLrE6YTLXL8xb6S7cNRPqzXR5vdr4xY76fRqG5Gr5yI3QNyS3A1J5B2fpSi7blG$>

dnf repolist                           # show repositories

dnf search syslog-ng

dnf install syslog-ng                  # confirm with a y to start installation, then another y to accept the GPG key

dnf install syslog-ng-bpf*             # Optional module recommended to leverage the eBPF support

dnf install syslog-ng-http*            # Optional modules recommended to leverage the HTTP support


syslog-ng is now installed and enabled to auto-start at boot time but not started yet.

Let me know if it helps.

Ciao.

Peter,

The error I got was.
warning: /tmp/syslog-ng-4.8.1-2.fc40.src.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID bb1105ce: NOKEY

I had downloaded it from the site, cannot remember exactly as it was done a couple of months ago preparing to upgrade the current version from 4.X.  We are on RHEL 7 and upgrading the environment to RHEL 9. I do notice that the older version is....
syslog-ng-3.5.6-3.el7.x86_64.rpm
and what I downloaded is
syslog-ng-4.8.1-2.fc40.src.rpm maybe I have a source that needs compiled?

Thanks
William

Hi,
A couple of questions before we can help you:

  *
Where did you download the package from?
  *
Did you add the repo, or you downloaded only the package?
  *
What is the error message?

Peter
