Hi I added this to my config file : *.* /var/log/rsyslog_debug.log;RSYSLOG_DebugFormat
When I start rsyslogd, the log file /var/log/rsyslog_debug.log is created but empty. I checked with lsof and there is not open file under this name. Any idea about what could be the problem? Thanks, Bernard beryllium:/var/log# ls -ltr -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 608492 2010-11-13 20:36 atop.log -rw-r----- 1 root adm 0 2010-11-13 20:39 *rsyslog_debug.log* -rw-r----- 1 root adm 25977 2010-11-13 20:39 messages -rw-r----- 1 root adm 1620 2010-11-13 20:39 kern.log -rw-r----- 1 root adm 45538 2010-11-13 20:45 syslog -rw-r----- 1 root adm 475829 2010-11-13 20:45 auth.log # lsof | grep rsyslog | fgrep /var/log rsyslogd 21679 root 5w REG 8,6 475634 28086 /var/log/auth.log rsyslogd 21679 root 6w REG 8,6 45378 27872 /var/log/syslog rsyslogd 21679 root 7w REG 8,6 14879 28084 /var/log/daemon.log rsyslogd 21679 root 8w REG 8,6 1620 28085 /var/log/kern.log rsyslogd 21679 root 9w REG 8,6 0 27875 /var/log/lpr.log rsyslogd 21679 root 10w REG 8,6 14420 27876 /var/log/mail.log rsyslogd 21679 root 11w REG 8,6 21839 28087 /var/log/user.log rsyslogd 21679 root 12w REG 8,6 14420 27878 /var/log/mail.info rsyslogd 21679 root 13w REG 8,6 2372 27879 /var/log/mail.warn rsyslogd 21679 root 14w REG 8,6 0 28188 /var/log/mail.err rsyslogd 21679 root 15w REG 8,6 0 27882 /var/log/news/news.crit rsyslogd 21679 root 16w REG 8,6 0 27883 /var/log/news/news.err rsyslogd 21679 root 17w REG 8,6 0 27884 /var/log/news/news.notice rsyslogd 21679 root 18w REG 8,6 108 27885 /var/log/debug rsyslogd 21679 root 19w REG 8,6 25977 28089 /var/log/messages _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com
