The new option doesn't seem to be working correctly: https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/477
With the old style config: #module(load="imklog" permitnonkernelfacility="on") # provides kernel logging support $ModLoad imklog #KLogPermitNonKernelFacility on I get kernel messages in /var/log/syslog: root@nsn7:~# grep andreas-was-here /var/log/syslog root@nsn7:~# echo andreas-was-here > /dev/kmsg root@nsn7:~# grep andreas-was-here /var/log/syslog Jul 12 16:46:33 nsn7 kernel: [27774.476193] andreas-was-here root@nsn7:~# But with this new v6 config style: module(load="imklog" permitnonkernelfacility="on") # provides kernel logging support #$ModLoad imklog #$KLogPermitNonKernelFacility on I don't. Which is the github issue I mentioned. Still, the ubuntu package is using a mix of old style vs new style when loading the imklog module, and that won't work anyway. We either go with v6 for both (loading and setting the option). or with legacy. ** Bug watch added: github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues #477 https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/477 ** Also affects: rsyslog via https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/477 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1675515 Title: old KLogPermitNonKernel directive error in rsyslog.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/rsyslog/+bug/1675515/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
