Changelog for 6.5.1 (v6-beta)

By adisconteamPosted on Posted in ChangelogTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Version 6.5.1 [BETA] 2012-10-11

  • added tool “logctl” to handle lumberjack logs in MongoDB
  • imfile ported to new v6 config interface
  • imfile now supports config parameter for maximum number of submits
    which is a fine-tuning parameter in regard to input baching
  • added pure JSON output plugin parameter passing mode
  • ommongodb now supports templates
  • bugfix: imtcp could abort on exit due to invalid free()
  • bugfix: remove invalid socket option call from imuxsock
    Thanks to Cristian Ionescu-Idbohrn and Jonny Törnbom
  • bugfix: missing support for escape sequences in RainerScript
    only \’ was supported. Now the usual set is supported. Note that v5
    used \x as escape where x was any character (e.g. “\n” meant “n” and NOT
    LF). This also means there is some incompatibility to v5 for well-know
    sequences. Better break it now than later.
  • bugfix: small memory leaks in template() statements
    these were one-time memory leaks during startup, so they did NOT grow
    during runtime
  • bugfix: config validation run did not always return correct return state
  • bugfix: config errors did not always cause statement to fail
    This could lead to startup with invalid parameters.

rsyslog 6.5.1 (v6-beta) released

By adisconteamPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

This is the new v6-beta, which includes the full v6-subset of the new config language as well as somewhat improved support for lumberjack/CEE. This version concludes development efforts for v6.

Note that it is recommended to use v7 if you do not have any special need for v6.

Changelog for 7.1.5 (v7-devel)

By adisconteamPosted on Posted in ChangelogTagged , , , , , , ,

Version 7.1.5 [devel] 2012-09-26

  • implemented RainerScript prifield() function
  • implemented RainerScript field() function
  • added new module imkmsg to process structured kernel log
    Thanks to Milan Bartos for contributing this module
  • implemented basic RainerScript optimizer, which will speed up script
    operations
  • bugfix: invalid free if function re_match() was incorrectly used
    if the config file parser detected that param 2 was not constant, some
    data fields were not initialized. The destructor did not care about that.
    This bug happened only if rsyslog startup was unclean.

rsyslog 7.1.5 (v7-devel) released

By adisconteamPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , , , , , ,

The script engine has been enhanced with new functions and even better performance. There is also a new plugin (imkmsg), which offers support for structured kernel logs. Special thanks to Milan Bartos, who contributed this module. The 7.1.5 version completes the core of enhancements to support lumberjack structured logging (but of course there will be more enhancements in the future).
RPM files for 7.1.5 can be found at http://www.rsyslog.com/rhelcentos-rpms/

Rsyslog Windows Agent 1.1b Released

By Adiscon SupportPosted on Posted in News, Release AnnouncementTagged , , ,

Adiscon is proud to announce the 1.1b release of RSyslog Windows Agent. This is a minor release.

This release contains a bugfix for the Filterengine.

Build-IDs: Service 1.1.108, Client 1.1.119

Bugfixes

  • Fixed/Readded support for the “-r -o” command line switch. This command switch enables you to run the service in console mode for a single run only. This currently only works with one v1 Eventlog Monitor configured. In this case the service will process all Events, and quits the process afterwards.

Version 1.1 is a free download. Customers with existing 1.x keys can contact our Sales department for upgrade prices. If you have a valid Upgrade Insurance ID, you can request a free new key by sending your Upgrade Insurance ID to sales@adiscon.com. Please note that the download enables the free 30-day trial version if used without a key – so you can right now go ahead and evaluate it.
