| Summary | 0004562: Error logging using system syslog is not possible | ||||
| Description | Running 3-series it was enough to specify "syslog" instead of a filename under the log block to have error messages sent to system's syslog. This is not longer working so in 4.0.1. The process simply creates a filename called "syslog" (under logs/) and writes error messages to it. No communication with syslog is attempted. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Running 4.0.1 as usual. Run in a FreeBSD 10.2 jail. | ||||
| Additional Information | This is a crucial feature for me. Being able to specify a syslog facility and level (e.g. to have sent the logs to local0.notice) would be also most welcome. Alternatively, you could consider handling syslog the way nginx does, i.e. http://nginx.org/en/docs/syslog.html so error messages of any facility and level can be sent to a remote syslog directly. | ||||

Ah, I see what's going on.. it's converting "syslog" to an absolute path, resulting to logging to a file, as you mentioned. This is now fixed. Thanks for the report. https://github.com/unrealircd/unrealircd/commit/9f4bd7228ad0ed4a06b15e3cab8487ebb461c64b I've spun off your request regarding syslog facility/level/more to 0004563. |
