Thanks! rsyslog was but syslogd wasn't I have never seen that missing before. And still, as I said earlier:

The strange thing is that this same net-install image installed already another VM without this problem. Installations are completely plain default settings.

Had the same problem, syslogd was missing and installing it also installed klogd. -- vr.gr. Freek de Kruijf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

So it's not just me as I always tend to think :) How did you install? Mine is 64 bit net install from CD image. Syslog daemon and kernel log daemon not installed by default? I doubt that.

For me, syslogd was missing, but klogd was not. That happened on an x86_64 new NET install, and a 32-bit NET upgrade from 11.4. Larry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I'm not sure about klogd here, but syslogd was missing for sure. And I didn't realize that because the error said "syslog" is not installed. It was but it was the daemon missing.

Vahis Thanks for this post I checked and it wasn't installed on my system. I did an upgrade from ms4 to ms5. -- Russ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
