Hi there, Just thought I would report this even though it is not a big issue and was easily diagnosed. I'm starting to test my current 5.8 config on 7.2.3 stable from the RPM on a fresh machine. My config contains the line:
$FileGroup network The group network did not exist on my new test machine, and rsyslog hung using 100% of a CPU thread when I attempted to start it with no error message. The bottom of the debug log is below. After creating the group, rsyslog starts fine. Perhaps a graceful failure with a warning about the configuration being incorrect might be more user friendly.
