In linux you can also fiddle with ACLs but I don't think that rsyslog
has direct support for managing them (why should it?). and the default
ACLs on directory are a bit confusing and are definitely not something
to dig into when one doesn't feel good with "normal" unix permissions.

For linux file permission system see e.g.
https://linuxize.com/post/understanding-linux-file-permissions/
you can set the owner of the file. But linux permissions does not give
you the capability to grant permissions to specific users.

Hi,
thanks for answering so quickly.
The link you gave me leads to the following example:
action(type="omfile" dirCreateMode="0700" FileCreateMode="0644"
File="/var/log/messages")
This example doesn't show how I can give full permissions to a user named, for example,
"dohnjoe".
If I can't give permissions to a specific user, global full permissions are
also good for me. Like chmod 777
But I don't understand the numbers in rsyslog permissions system... In my case,
what numbers should I write in FileCreatorMode so all users get full access?
action(type="omfile" dirCreateMode="0700" FileCreateMode="????"
File="/home/pi/logs/hive_manager.log")
Have a good day!

specify the settings in the action() object. Doc:

side-note: I am not sure, but I think the legacy construct you quoted
just changes the setting for the next output action. But I am too lazy
to look this up, as it is not really relevant in this case. ;-)

Hello,
I want to set non-default permission to the log file created for my service.
- My service is started and named in
*/etc/systemd/system/hive_manager.service.*
- Then, in */etc/rsyslog.d/hive_manager.conf* the name of the log is
defined by the following condition:
*if $programname == 'hive_manager' then /home/pi/logs/hive_manager.log*
- Finally, in */etc/rsyslog.conf * I have the following definitions:
*#*
*# Set the default permissions for all log files.*
*#*
*$FileOwner root*
*$FileGroup adm*
*$FileCreateMode 0640*
*$DirCreateMode 0755*
*$Umask 0022*
*# Include all config files in /etc/rsyslog.d/*
*#*
*$IncludeConfig /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf*
Currently, the */home/pi/logs/hive_manager.log* is created under the root
permissions (the default). I need to configure its creation under different
user permissions.
How can I do it? I couldn't find any help with it in the relevant forums.
Thanks a lot!
Have a good day!
