Hi,
I am using rsyslogd 8.4.4 in Ubuntu 14.04. I want my applications logs to
be in a separate log file(ex : /var/log/mylog.log).Before I used rsyslog 5v
on ubuntu 12.04 for the same purpose and it worked. I used the following
snippet with rsyslog 5v serve my purpose.Following are the lines in my
application that writes logs to syslog.
setlogmask (LOG_UPTO (LOG_NOTICE));
openlog ("thelog", LOG_CONS | LOG_PID | LOG_NDELAY, LOG_LOCAL1);
syslog (LOG_NOTICE, "thelog : started by User %d", getuid ()); closelog();
And the following lines in /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf configuration file
local1.* -/var/log/thelog.log
Now the above method no longer works with new rsyslog 8.4v. I even
tried the following line
if $syslogfacility-text == 'local1' then /var/log/mylog.log
Even this is not working. Can someone suggest me, how to do it.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ravi
