Any answer? BTW, most of the forums on the internet has reported this problem. Whether Rsyslog intend to finish/terminate this feature in the future or what - thats why they are not interested? Why this is so that some people reported problem with specific OS like CentOS? Many people claims that it works fine on Ubuntu...we are trying it there now.
In fact the net goal of this exercise for us to see what is the memory consumption while trying to write external filters in Rsyslog, as opposed to using Logtash. Logtash in our case has shown memory consumption more than 50% than that of Rsyslog + MongoDB. I am waiting for any pointer, any answer. So far we are neither able to run any shell script, nor python program. The problem is that control is never transferred to external program. Please guide and help!!!!!
