Changelog for 7.1.8 (v7-beta)

Version 7.1.8  [beta] 2012-10-02

  • bugfix: ruleset(){} directive errornously changed default ruleset much like the $ruleset legacy conf statement. This potentially lead to statements being assigned to the wrong ruleset.
  • improved module doc
  • added “parser” parameter to ruleset(), so that parser chain can be configured
  • implemented “continue” RainerScript statement

Changelog for 6.3.10 (v6-beta)

Version 6.3.10 [BETA] 2012-06-04

  • bugfix: delayble source could block action queue, even if there was disk queue associated with it. The root cause of this problem was that it makes no sense to delay messages once they arrive in the action queue – the “input” that is being held in that case is the main queue worker, what makes no sense.
    Thanks to Marcin for alerting us on this problem and providing instructions to reproduce it.
  • bugfix: invalid free in imptcp could lead to abort during startup
  • bugfix: if debug message could end up in log file when forking if rsyslog was set to auto-background (thus fork, the default) and debug mode to stdout was enabled, debug messages ended up in the first log file opened. Currently, stdout logging is completely disabled in forking mode (but writing to the debug log file is still possible). This is a change in behaviour, which is under review. If it causes problems to you, please let us know.
    Thanks to Tomas Heinrich for the patch.
  • bugfix: –enable-smcustbindcdr configure directive did not work
    closes: http://bugzilla.adiscon.com/show_bug.cgi?id=330
    Thanks to Ultrabug for the patch.
  • bugfix: made rsyslog compile when libestr ist not installed in /usr
    Thanks to Miloslav Trmač for providing patches and suggestions

rsyslog 6.3.9 (v6-beta) released

This is a new beta release vor the v6 branch. It is a follow-up to the current devel-branch. This release contains a lot of bugfixes and has some new features added like the capability to specify substrings for field extraction mode or the new property “jsonf”. More detailed information can be found in the changelog.

Since this is a new beta version, it would be nice to get some test results on the features and fixes from the userbase. Responses can be submitted via the mailing list.
