Hi, I have been trying to implement separate logging for haproxy. But I end up with duplicate logging and can't separate logs based on the input socket or facility alone.
My sample configuration in haproxy: Global configuration: log /dev/log len 1024 format local local0 debug Frontend -1 configuration (for Web requests): log /dev/request-log len 1024 format local local1 debug Frontend-2 configuration (for DB requests): log /dev/db-log len 1024 format local local2 debug So here I was basically trying to redirect logs to different sockets and additionally I also used different facilities for each, because I don't know how to redirect messages based on input socket. And in rsyslog configuration, I added the following: $AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log local0.* /var/log/haproxy/haproxy.log $AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/request-log local2.* /var/log/haproxy/requests.log $AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/db-log local3.* /var/log/haproxy/db.log But all the above log files have the same logging i.e., web request logging, db logging and other haproxy logging all are duplicated in these three files.and including default /var/log/messages. Complete rsyslog.conf: $ModLoad imuxsock $ModLoad imjournal $WorkDirectory /var/lib/rsyslog $ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat $SystemLogSocketName /run/systemd/journal/syslog $OmitLocalLogging on $IMJournalStateFile imjournal.state *.info;mail.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages authpriv.* /var/log/secure mail.* -/var/log/maillog cron.* /var/log/cron *.emerg :omusrmsg:* uucp,news.crit /var/log/spooler local7.* /var/log/boot.log local1.* /var/log/keepalived.log $AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log local0.* /var/log/haproxy/haproxy.log $AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/request-log local2.* /var/log/haproxy/requests.log $AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/db-log local3.* /var/log/haproxy/db.log I see it works correctly if I use something like this instead of using facility: (i..e, no duplication happens) :programname, startswith, "haproxy" { /var/log/haproxy/haproxy.log stop } But it is unwanted extra processing when it could be easy to filter out messages based on input socket or facility name. Can anyone help me understand why the duplication is happening, but not in the case for other default sections like cron, mail, authpriv etc. where there is no duplication. _______________________________________________ rsyslog mailing list https://lists.adiscon.net/mailman/listinfo/rsyslog http://www.rsyslog.com/professional-services/ What's up with rsyslog?
