Changelog for 6.3.7 (v6-devel)

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in ChangelogTagged , , , , , , , ,

Version 6.3.7  [DEVEL] 2012-02-02

  • imported refactored v5.9.6 imklog linux driver, now combined with BSD driver
  • removed imtemplate/omtemplate template modules, as this was waste of time
    The actual input/output modules are better copy templates. Instead, the now-removed modules cost time for maintenance AND often caused confusion on what their role was.
  • added  new stats objects
  • improved support for new v6 config system. The build-in output modules now all support the new config language
  • bugfix: facility local<x> was not correctly interpreted in legacy filters
    Was only accepted if it was the first PRI in a multi-filter PRI. Thanks to forum user Mark for bringing this to our attention.
  • bugfix: potential abort after reading invalid X.509 certificate
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=290
    Thanks to Tomas Heinrich for the patch
  • bufgix: legacy parsing of some filters did not work correctly
  • bugfix: rsyslog aborted during startup if there is an error in loading an action and legacy configuration mode is used
  • bugfix: bsd klog driver did no longer compile
  • relicensed larger parts of the code under Apache (ASL) 2.0
