Package: rsyslog Version: 8.24.0-1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
I just upgraded my system, and rsyslog is writing nothing but garbage to FIFOs. This makes rsyslog nearly useless for me, and I need a working remote syslog daemon and rsyslog appears to be the only option anymore. I have *.* |/root/syslog in /etc/rsyslog.conf, where /root/syslog is a FIFO. Rsyslog's output looks like this: 28-11T44:6753-50 laionp[48] eev:Uepce rgntmsap0d9b1.d321de o ac og0d9b7.e8bffo y_cie12248.0xt0d9b9.ac282018-11-10T14:48:46.775383-05:00 albarino liblogging-stdlog: action 'action 13' resumed (module 'builtin:ompipe') [v8.24.0 try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2359 ] 018-1-1T44:280850:0 larn td386:rcev: nxpce rgn ietm xd9b1.d335 dsnt achar 0d9b7.ff604frmsm_cie@3.048.5 m 0d9b48b7c962018-11-10T1449:58.805-50alaiosh[4] eahpby etp hd o ukycetKyys[ruh 011T45:1011-50 lbrn sd34] cetdpswr o otfo 66.0.7 ot555sh 281-01:00.242-50 lbrn ytm[35] iteigo nP rporpi gn shaeteulto) 2018-11-10T14:50:01.12597-0:00abrn ytmd31:Lseigo nP rporpi gn n sprs ah rsrce) The log messages sent to rsyslog don't look anything like that. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.4.155 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages rsyslog depends on: ii init-system-helpers 1.48 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii libestr0 0.1.10-2 ii libfastjson4 0.99.4-1 ii liblogging-stdlog0 1.0.5-2+b2 ii liblognorm5 2.0.1-1.1+b1 ii libsystemd0 232-25+deb9u6 ii libuuid1 2.29.2-1+deb9u1 ii lsb-base 9.20161125 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 Versions of packages rsyslog recommends: ii logrotate 3.11.0-0.1 Versions of packages rsyslog suggests: pn rsyslog-doc <none> pn rsyslog-gnutls <none> pn rsyslog-gssapi <none> pn rsyslog-mongodb <none> pn rsyslog-mysql | rsyslog-pgsql <none> pn rsyslog-relp <none> -- Configuration Files: /etc/rsyslog.conf changed: module(load="imuxsock") # provides support for local system logging module(load="imklog") # provides kernel logging support $ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat $FileOwner root $FileGroup adm $FileCreateMode 0640 $DirCreateMode 0755 $Umask 0022 $WorkDirectory /var/spool/rsyslog $IncludeConfig /etc/rsyslog.d/*.conf auth,authpriv.* /var/log/auth.log *.*;auth,authpriv.none -/var/log/syslog daemon.* -/var/log/daemon.log kern.* -/var/log/kern.log lpr.* -/var/log/lpr.log mail.* -/var/log/mail.log user.* -/var/log/user.log mail.info -/var/log/mail.info mail.warn -/var/log/mail.warn mail.err /var/log/mail.err *.=debug;\ auth,authpriv.none;\ news.none;mail.none -/var/log/debug *.=info;*.=notice;*.=warn;\ auth,authpriv.none;\ cron,daemon.none;\ mail,news.none -/var/log/messages *.emerg :omusrmsg:* *.* |/root/syslog -- no debconf information
