Centos 7 rsyslogd bug.

[kmlreverser]

In CentOS 7 after upgrading the package rsyslog-7.4.7-12.el7.x86_64 the log files are not updated, to fix this problem need to add  type="imuxsock" HostName="localhost" Socket="/dev/log"  after $ModLoad  in the file /etc/rsyslogd.conf. 


Hola,
En centos 7 hay un bug, que cuando se actualiza el paquete rsyslog-7.4.7-12.el7.x86_64 , se dejan de escribir los logs, para solucionarlo hay que editar el fichero /etc/rsyslog.conf y añadir la linea type="imuxsock" HostName="localhost" Socket="/dev/log" debajo de $ModLoad imuxsock .

Example:

[root@root log]# cat /etc/rsyslog.conf
# rsyslog configuration file

# For more information see /usr/share/doc/rsyslog-*/rsyslog_conf.html
# If you experience problems, see http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/troubleshoot.html

#### MODULES ####

# The imjournal module bellow is now used as a message source instead of imuxsock.
$ModLoad imuxsock # provides support for local system logging (e.g. via logger command)
type="imuxsock" HostName="localhost" Socket="/dev/log"
$ModLoad imjournal # provides access to the systemd journal
#$ModLoad imklog # reads kernel messages (the same are read from journald)
#$ModLoad immark  # provides --MARK-- message capability
