Version 0.9.5 (RGer), 2005-08-01
the "semicolon bug" was actually not (fully) solved in 0.9.4. One part of the bug was solved, but another still existed. This one is fixed now, too.
the "semicolon bug" actually turned out to be a more generic bug. It appeared whenever an invalid template name was given. With some selector actions, rsyslogd dumped core, with other it "just" had a small ressource leak with others all worked well. These anomalies are now fixed. Note that they only appeared during system initaliziation once the system was running, nothing bad happened.
improved error reporting for template errors on startup. They are now shown on the console and the start-up tty. Formerly, they were only visible in debug mode.
support for multiple instances of rsyslogd on a single machine added
added new option "-o" --> omit local unix domain socket. This option enables rsyslogd NOT to listen to the local socket. This is most helpful when multiple instances of rsyslogd (or rsyslogd and another syslogd) shall run on a single system.
added new option "-i <pidfile>" which allows to specify the pidfile. This is needed when multiple instances of rsyslogd are to be run.
Only logged in users are allowed to comment.
