Hi everyone I have Apache logging to /bin/logger Then rsyslog takes these log messages, writes vhost-specific log files, then forwards over the network.
However with my rsyslog config as it is currently, I'm finding that all the Apache logs are also ending up in /var/log/messages... which causes these log files to get very large very quickly. I'm still testing out various rsyslog configs and I'm using rsyslog v7 from the RPM repos. Here's my full rsyslog config... http://pastebin.com/Qe5yGjpf And I think the problem is this line, which is in the default config... # Log anything (except mail) of level info or higher. # Don't log private authentication messages! *.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages I'm not dropping the Apache log lines after I've written them to vhost-specific log files as I also want them to be forwarded over the network. Is there a way to exclude my apache log template from that /var/log/messages rule but still allow them and all other log messages to run through the forwarding action?
