rsyslog 1.19.1 released

Post #1 of 5 (1269 views)

Hi all,

rsyslog 1.19.1 has been released today. This is a cleanup and bug fixing
release. It fixes a bug which can lead to a high load closing a remote
connection. A potential sefault on reinit was fixed as well as some
other bugs. Further the unloading of modules was enhanced. Especially
the MySQL output module has been optimized. The hardcoded module path
"/lib/rsyslog" changed to $(pkglibdir) in order to support 64 bit
platforms. This is a recommended update for all users.

Changelog:

As always feedback is appreciated.

FYI: this seems to make mysql mandatory for building rsyslog, as the
output module is built even if I specify --disable-mysql.

That's a good point. Probably we need a separate make target. The
--disable-mysql switch should go away in the not so distant future. The
reason is that core rsyslog does no longer support MySQL at all - it is
a separate module that does. However, so it should compile without mysql
dev libs, of course. I think a separate make target for the plugin is
probably the best to do.

This will be good, as I can then create a spec file with a variable the user
can set (0 or 1) whether they want the mysql rpm built or not.

I can do this now in the specs I make available in the wiki, but with the
necessity to require mysql to build anyway I saw no point in doing that.

Regards,

Michael.

Michael,

As I've written in the other post, that'll probably happen next week
(Because I can not access the code right now). But possibly some other
folks pick it up an fix it ;)
