This is what I see: >>> >>> 2015-02-03T10:10:14.076337+01:00 ubuntu1404esp rsyslogd-2184: action '*' >>> treated as ':omusrmsg:*' - please change syntax, '*' will not be >>> supported >>> in the future [v8.8.0.master try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2184 ] >>> 2015-02-03T10:10:14.146723+01:00 ubuntu1404esp rsyslogd-2207: error >>> during >>> parsing file bluecoat.conf, on or before line 7: warnings occured in file >>> '/bluecoat.conf' around line 7 [v8.8.0.master try >>> http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2207 ] >>> >> >> >> Just in case, this wasn't obvious, please change the line to >> >> *.emerg :omusrmsg:* >> > > Given how many configs are going to have this in it (legacy being > propogated along), we should look at putting together a script to detect > this at upgrade time and update the config (at least as this changes from > being a warning to being an error) > > Just for the records: nothing has changed, it's the same message since v6 (maybe early v7). It's still a warning. But at some points rsyslog is not so good at differentiating between the two. I am checking code to make sure this is more inline, this is also needed for the error-exit functions (several github trackers for that). But I need to review roughly another 580 lines with error messages... ;)
