Package: syslog-ng-core Version: 3.5.6-2+b1 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hi,
syslog-ng in Jessie does not read /etc/default/syslog-ng when started with systemd, so additional parameters are not passed to the daemon. (The sysv init script does read this file.) The following patch to the unit file fixes the problem: --- syslog-ng.service.orig 2015-08-04 17:23:15.202067744 +0100 +++ syslog-ng.service 2015-08-04 17:23:06.514010322 +0100 @@ -5,7 +5,8 @@ [Service] Type=notify Sockets=syslog.socket -ExecStart=/usr/sbin/syslog-ng -F +EnvironmentFile=-/etc/default/syslog-ng +ExecStart=/usr/sbin/syslog-ng -F $SYSLOGNG_OPTS ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID StandardOutput=null Restart=on-failure Thanks, Matthew -- Matthew Newton, Ph.D. <[email protected]> Systems Specialist, Infrastructure Services, I.T.
