Can you mail me the complete debug log, please. Rainer

You are correct, rsyslog is not seeing a need to queue. My debug log is filled with the following entries, which clearly indicate it sees no need to queue or spool. So again, I think I am missing something very basic here... 7878.780426000:455e1940: main Q: entry added, size now 1 entries 7878.780439000:455e1940: wtpAdviseMaxWorkers signals busy 7878.780566000:455e1940: main Q: EnqueueMsg advised worker start 7878.780585000:423dc940: main Q: entry deleted, state 0, size now 0 entries I used the very basic config from your article on buffering. $MainMsgQueueSize 500 $WorkDirectory /var/log/rsyslogq # default location for work (spool) files $MainMsgQueueFileName mainq # set file name, also enables disk mode $ActionResumeRetryCount -1 # infinite retries on insert failure Mysql is definitely not running, as show by the following: 8220.440850000:41537940: Called LogError, msg: db error (2002): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) rsyslogd: db error (2002): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) 8220.440865000:41537940: logmsg: flags 1, from 'vt1hs1-netservices01', msg db error (2002): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) 8220.441040000:41537940: Called action, logging to ommysql 8220.573450000:41537940: Called action, logging to ommysql 8220.574801000:41537940: Called action, logging to ommysql 8220.602406000:41537940: Called action, logging to ommysql 8220.604330000:41537940: Called action, logging to ommysql On Mon, 12 Sep 2011 15:18:32 +0200 Rainer Gerhards <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [email protected] [mailto:rsyslog- > > [email protected]] On Behalf Of Steve Chupack > > Sent: Monday, September 12, 2011 3:02 PM > > To: [email protected] > > Subject: Re: [rsyslog] Unable to implement on-disk queuing > > > > Hmmmm... the thing is, my $MainMsgQueueSize is only 5, and I had mysql > > turned off for 20 minutes...
