Package: syslog-ng
Version: 3.1.3-3
Severity: normal
When using syslog-ng inside a number of vservers, the following error message
is sent by logrotate:
Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 06:53:26 -0300
From: Cron Daemon <[email protected]>
To: [email protected]
Subject: Cron <root@box> test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts
--report /etc/cron.daily )
/etc/cron.daily/logrotate:
syslog-ng: Error setting file number limit; limit='4096'; error='Operation not
permitted'
I don't get this error on non-vservers. It seems just an annoying message as
this doesn't prevent syslog-ng to run.

To silence the warning on systems where the default limit of open fds is
lower than 4096 (such as vserver), use the --fd-limit 1024 option.
Putting that into SYSLOGNG_OPTS in /etc/default/syslog-ng should do the
right thing.
I do not think it'd be feasible to lower the default to 1024 for
vserver's sake only.
