Hi, Is it possible in rsyslog (5.8.10) to drop messages containing invalid severity or priority values?
I have a dhcp daemon which seems to generate invalid values sometimes. My syslog server can't insert those messages in de (postgres) database: ERROR: column "invld" does not exist at character 198 STATEMENT: insert into SystemEvents (Message, Facility, FromHost, Priority, DeviceReportedTime, ReceivedAt, InfoUnitID, SysLogTag) values (E' DHCPNAK on 192.168.0.105 to 18:34:51:34:6e:2f via 131.211.238.1', invld, 'dhcp.uu.nl', invld, '2012-04-18 10:47:36', '2012-04-18 10:47:36', 1, 'dhcpd:') It seems to try forever (allthough "$ActionResumeRetryCount 10"). The files with stalled input on disk contain: +iSeverity:2:2:-1: +iFacility:2:2:-1: Regards, -- Henk van Lingen, ICT-SC Netwerk & Telefonie, (o- -+ Universiteit Utrecht, Jenalaan 18a, room 0.12 /\ | phone: +31-30-2538453 v_/_ | http://henk.vanlingen.net/ http://www.tuxtown.net/netiquette/ _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list http://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
