Hi Rainer,

Im not sure if its caused by the same thing as OP below, but I have this same issue with 5.8.10 that ive been working through for the past few hours where any messages sent with 'logger' are extremely delayed or disappear into the ether all together. Its happening with a default unmodified config.

I have a set of bash functions I use and I have a generic log function that uses 'logger' to send detailed output to syslog, but even after having ran commands for about 4 hrs theres tons of missing messages in /var/log/messages. Only when I enabled '$ActionFileEnableSync on' do all the log messages start appearing normally. Is that supposed to be normal behavior? I was under the impression from the comment on this setting that the messages would be delayed since it was related to rsyslog forcing a sync on write, not lost (from what I can tell).

Thanks,

Can you provide me a debug log (private mail is OK)? I just re-tried

When i run rsyslog in debug mode ( LC_ALL="en_US.utf.8"
RSYSLOG_DEBUG="debug PrintFuncDB PrintMutexAction"  rsyslogd -c5 -dn
rsyslogd.deb.log ), problem didn't occur :(
Mhhh, that's bad. Can you set RSYSLOG_DEBUG just to "debug" but nothing else?
Maybe this helps...

Probably it also explains why I don't see the issue.
