any thoughts on this issue with calling rulesets by names with hyphens ("-") ?btw, i forgot to mention this is with rsyslog 8.2.1 on RHEL6. (using the yum repo supplied by rsyslog project) thanks for any suggestions, -Bond -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Masuda, Bond Sent: Wednesday, June 18, 2014 6:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [rsyslog] call ruleset and ruleset name allowable characters Hi rsyslogers: I'm testing out the "call" method to nest rulesets inside rulesets. However, I get a parsing error whenever a ruleset has "-" (hyphen) in the ruleset name. For example: ruleset(name="Data-Archiving") { action(type="omfile" file="/data/logs/archive-all.log") } ruleset(name="main") { call Data-Archiving } I get this error: Jun 18 17:34:40 hostname rsyslogd-2207: error during parsing file /etc/rsyslog.d/ruleset_main-remote.conf, on or before line 2: errors occured in file '/etc/rsyslog.d/ruleset_main-remote.conf' around line 2 [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2207 ] Jun 18 17:34:40 hostname rsyslogd-2207: error during parsing file (null), on or before line 108: ruleset 'Data' cannot be found [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2207 ] Looks like instead of looking for "Data-Archiving" ruleset name, it is looking for "Data". Is this a bug or is there some restrictions on what characters can be used for ruleset names? When I use name without "-", everything works as expected!
