In fact, you pointed me to the solution. Leonid was suspecting it, and your manual link actually confirmed it. The generated configuration file is "fine", the symlinks are there etc. Here's the relevant portion of the manual text: "If the host is running under systemd, syslog-ng OSE reads directly from the systemd journal file using the systemd-journal() source" (6.11, p96 :) Now, with journald.conf "Storage=None", this cannot work, obviously. systemd-induced design brainfuck spreading... why would one follow a file when you have a socket already in place for some 30 years. I'll have a more detailed look at Leonid's suggestion, as that seems to be the way to go. Thanks Troy.
