Hi Gentoo-users,
today I updated syslog-ng on my server. When I checked config
file, I got this message:
# /etc/init.d/syslog-ng checkconfig
* Checking your configfile (/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf) ...
WARNING: Your configuration file uses an obsoleted keyword, please
update your configuration; keyword='time_sleep', change='time_sleep()
has been deprecated since syslog-ng 3.3' [ ok ]
#
So I checked the new syslog-ng-ose-v3.4-guide-admin.pdf,
but there is nothing about time_sleep() being obsolete
or deprecated. Quite on the contrary: it is listed as
valid option, and even mentioned in the chapter 17
"best practices" as a way of handling lots of parallel
connections.
So how is it then? Is time_sleep() supported and valid,
or obsolete/deprecated?
Jarry

I also had some issues when I upgraded to 3.4.
Most of the warnings went away when I changed the version string in
syslog-ng.conf to "@version: 3.4".
Just my 2 cents (€)

The new version runs a couple of useful checks on the syntax of the
configuration file - who would have thought that I had a duplicate directive
in there! O_o

Hmm ... I just tried 'less /var/log/syslog' and I now get a binary file ...
However, most parses it as text. Has something changed in less recently?

No, I think it's syslog-ng that puts null bytes in the log at startup.
Now I wonder, was it intended to be a feature or what...

Did you try "less /var/log/syslog.log" ?

# less /var/log/syslog.log
/var/log/syslog.log: No such file or directory
The output of my 'less /var/log/syslog' effort is attached as a screenshot.
