Bug Description
(I'm a Linux newbie)
Here are the steps that built the crash scenario:
1 - I installed syslog-ng
2 - I replaced entire syslog-ng.conf content with settings to fit Cacti (according to item 5 here: http://
3 - When restarting syslog-ng, it produced errors saying that the conf file had deprecated instructions
4 - I decided to restore the original .conf file by removing and installing syslog-conf
5 - I noticed that the new installation didn't updated /etc/syslog-ng contents (directory where syslog-ng file is)
6 - I manually removed /etc/syslog-ng directory
7 - I removed and reinstalled once more syslog-ng
It was this last installation that produced the error
