Rsyslog weirdness

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I just noticed that on one CentOS 5 server the logs messages, maillog 
and a couple of others have been blank for a couple of weeks!

I tracked down the error to /etc/sysconfig/rsyslogd

There was a line
SYSLOGD_OPTIONS="-c3"

I googled that -c3 defines the "version" or "compatibility mode", and 
with 3 it means "rsyslog v3 native interface".

When I removed the option and restarted rsyslogd, the logging began to 
work again.

I wonder why is this. Probably this was caused by my recent system 
updates (yum update).
