6.2.1

Changelog for 6.2.1 (v6-stable)

Version 6.2.1 [v6-stable], 2012-05-10

  • change plugin config interface to be compatible with pre-v6.2 system
    The functionality was already removed (because it is superseeded by the
    v6.3+ config language), but code was still present. I have now removed
    those parts that affect interface. Full removal will happen in v6.3, in
    order to limit potential regressions. However, it was considered useful
    enough to do the interface change in v6-stable; this also eases merging
    branches!
  • re-licensed larger parts of the codebase under the Apache license 2.0
  • bugfix: omprog made rsyslog abort on startup if not binary to
    execute was configured
  • bugfix: imklog invalidly computed facility and severity
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=313
  • bugfix: stopped DA queue was never processed after a restart due to a
    regression from statistics module
  • bugfix: memory leak in array passing output module mode
  • bugfix: ommysql did not properly init/exit the mysql runtime library
    this could lead to segfaults. Triggering condition: multiple action
    instances using ommysql. Thanks to Tomas Heinrich for reporting this
    problem and providing an initial patch (which my solution is based on,
    I need to add more code to clean the mess up).
  • bugfix: rsyslog did not terminate when delayable inputs were blocked
    due to unvailable sources. Fixes:

    Thanks to Marcin M for bringing up this problem and Andre Lorbach
    for helping to reproduce and fix it.
  • bugfix/tcpflood: sending small test files did not work correctly
