On boot up, syslog-ng does not start correctly: # systemctl status syslog-ng syslog-ng.service - System Logging Service Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/syslog-ng.service; enabled) Active: failed (Result: start-limit) since Mon 2015-03-09 09:31:30 CET; 1min 6s ago Process: 453 ExecStart=/usr/sbin/syslog-ng -F $SYSLOG_NG_PARAMS (code=exited, status=2) Process: 448 ExecStartPre=/usr/sbin/syslog-ng-service-prepare (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS) Main PID: 453 (code=exited, status=2) Mar 09 09:31:30 dupont8 systemd[1]: syslog-ng.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=2/INVALIDARGUMENT Mar 09 09:31:30 dupont8 systemd[1]: Unit syslog-ng.service entered failed state.

After I've logged in, starting it manually works fine. I've added arguments "-v -d -e" to the syslog-ng startup, but they don't seem to produce any more debug output. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
