Re: stange error

I have read the thread, BUT. It says to change the ownership of log files to syslog, and set the $FileOwner variable to syslog in /etc/rsyslogd.conf.
I do not have syslog user in my system. Shall i create one for this purpose? This bug is ratger old (2009. septembe), has not been fixed yet?

Hi!

I am getting the following line in my /var/log/messages, but no any other:

Jan 23 06:25:23 algol rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.6.4" x-pid="1500" x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com";] rsyslogd was HUPed, type 'lightweight'.

What does it mean?

the same problem is discussed in some detail there. Appears the problem is related to rsyslogd log file's permissions. Maybe you're having the same problem ?

Mihira.
