OK, not out of disk space. That's good. Also, interesting that you have /var/log as a separate file system. That's uncommon (but nothing wrong with it). > ❯ systemctl status rsyslog.service > ● rsyslog.service - System Logging Service > Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/rsyslog.service; enabled; vendor > preset: enabled) > Active: inactive (dead) > TriggeredBy: ● syslog.socket > Docs: man:rsyslogd(8) > man:rsyslog.conf(5) > https://www.rsyslog.com/doc/ Frustratingly devoid of details.

How about: systemctl cat rsyslog.service Maybe you've customized or changed something that will be visible. Another approach you can take is to Google your error message, and see if any of the results are helpful. The idea that the unit file may have been customized came from one of the Google results that I got.
