Troubleshooting
If you get errors like this
Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:the last error occured in /etc/rsyslog.conf, line 8 Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:could not load module '/usr/local/lib/rsyslog/imklog.so', dlopen: /usr/local/lib/rsyslog/imklog.so: undefined symbol: MsgSetRcvFromIP Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:the last error occured in /etc/rsyslog.conf, line 9 Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:could not load module '/usr/local/lib/rsyslog/imudp.so', dlopen: /usr/local/lib/rsyslog/imudp.so: undefined symbol: MsgSetRcvFromIP Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:the last error occured in /etc/rsyslog.conf, line 13 Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:invalid or yet-unknown config file command - have you forgotten to load a module? Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:the last error occured in /etc/rsyslog.conf, line 14 Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:invalid or yet-unknown config file command - have you forgotten to load a module? Oct 26 15:34:29 information rsyslogd:the last error occured in /etc/rsyslog.conf, line 24 Oct 26 15:34:29 information kernel: rklogd 2.0.6, log source = /proc/kmsg started.
in `/var/log/messages' file after doing `service rsyslog restart' then probably you are not running rsyslog version you installed from source. Make sure you use `--libdir=/lib --sbindir=/sbin' with `./configure' so that already installed rsyslog is replaced.
