Hi,

I modified a Cassandra application to write to a file and use imfile in
rsyslog to avoid the multiline logs headache.

I am running rsyslogd 8.1.6 on both client and server. The rsyslog client
is configured with this imfile:

# Cassandra log
input(type="imfile"
        File="/var/log/cassandra/system.log"
        Tag="cassandra"
        StateFile="stat-localring93-1"
        readMode="2"
        Severity="info"
        Facility="local2")

Using a template for a dynamic file
# Templates for logging remotely
template(name="GroupApp" type="string"
         string="<%PRI%>%TIMESTAMP:::date-rfc3339% %HOSTNAME%
%syslogtag%testingdirectory:%msg%\n"
         )

if $syslogfacility-text == 'local0' or $syslogfacility-text == 'local1' or
$syslogfacility-text == 'local2' then {
   action(type="omrelp" target="my_rsyslog_server" port="XXX"
template="GroupApp"

This template is used for many applications and it works.

I am tunning cassandra permissions but I am testing it with the following
persmissions:
-rw-r--r-- 1 cassandra cassandra 68819 Jul  8 11:25 system.log

I have launched the rsyslog in debug mode and found lines like the ones
below. Don't understand what is wrong here....

Thanks a lot,
Xavi
