rsyslog 8.2.2 (v8-stable) released
We have just released 8.2.2 of the v8-stable branch.
This release allows to build the missing (contributed) modules under v8. Please note, that most of these modules did not yet receive real testing as we don’t have the necessary environments. We depend on users submitting error reports and helping out to iron out any issues that may arise.
Additionaly, the separated documentation is available as a tarball download on the download page.

Changelog for 8.2.2 (v8-stable)
Version 8.2.2 [v8-stable] 2014-06-02
- made the missing (contributed) modules build under v8
Note that we could do this to the stable, because there is NO regression chance at all: only the modules themselves were changed, and they did NOT work at all previously. Please also note that most of these modules did not yet receive real testing. As we don’t have the necessary environments (easily enough available), we depend on users submitting error reports and helping to iron out any issues that may arise.
Modules:- mmrfc5424addhmac
- omrabbitmq
- omgssapi
- omhdfs
- omzmq3
Quick guide to omzmq3
Here is a quick guide for using rsyslog with omzmq3. The mentioned procedure has been tested with rsyslog 7.1.12. In future versions, this could be different.
1. Build zeromq 3.2.1-rc2
2. Build czmq 1.2.0, linking it with zeromq 3.2.1-rc2
3. Build rsyslog 7.1.12, using the “–enable-omzmq3” configure option
4. Configured rsyslog to publish all messages on a zmq bind socket:
*.* action(type="omzmq3" sockType="PUB" action="BIND" description="tcp://*:11514" template="any_message_template")
DON’T FORGET THE TEMPLATE: Otherwise, rsyslog will segfault.
