Rsyslogd not logging to file
(1/1)
Earthenware:
Thanks for the help.
I tried some changes but they didn't make any difference.
I need a reliable syslog so I've removed rsyslogd and I'm trying syslog-ng now. It's working fine at the moment. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it's reliable.

Hello!
Catfish found these instances of syslog.conf. You can try editing one of these in the Text Editor (Leafpad):
--- Code: ---sudo leafpad /etc/rsyslog.conf
sudo leafpad /etc/init/rsyslog.conf
--- End code ---
Hope this helps...

Hi,
On my system, Rsyslogd sometimes stops logging to files. It's random and happens maybe every other week. It doesn't coincide with any changes or updates.
I found a diagnostic that told me to run the following command:
/usr/sbin/rsyslogd -f/etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf -N1
The output is:
rsyslogd: version 5.8.6, config validation run (level 1), master config /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf
rsyslogd: WARNING: rsyslogd is running in compatibility mode. Automatically generated config directives may interfer with your rsyslog.conf settings. We suggest upgrading your config and adding -c5 as the first rsyslogd option.
rsyslogd: Warning: backward compatibility layer added to following directive to rsyslog.conf: ModLoad immark
rsyslogd: Warning: backward compatibility layer added to following directive to rsyslog.conf: MarkMessagePeriod 1200
rsyslogd: Warning: backward compatibility layer added to following directive to rsyslog.conf: ModLoad imuxsock
rsyslogd: End of config validation run. Bye.
So, it looks like I have to add -c5 as the first syslogd option.
The problem is, I have absolutely no idea how to do this. Can anyone help please?
