The log below is coming from your syslog?

Is there more in the syslog?

Yes, that's from the syslog (messages) trimmed a little. There's nothing further in the log. 

Added the debug messages that were prior to that below.

Ended up uninstalling and installing and all's fine again.  Comes back after a reboot.
