I configured my rsyslog with below settings and was able to generate haproxy.log in my directory /opt/app/haproxy but it gets generated with owner root and file permission rw------.Does anybody know or implemented as to how to change the ownership and file permissions for the log directory.I know its a more of rsyslog question than HAProxy but if any body having any idea?
Step 1 : Edit the config file of rsyslog(rsyslog.conf) uncomment the below lines in rsyslog.conf : #$ModLoad imudp #$UDPServerRun 514 Add following line: $UDPServerAddress 127.0.0.1 2. Create a file /etc/rsyslog.d/haproxy.conf and insert the following if ($programname == 'haproxy' and $syslogseverity-text == 'info') then -/opt/app/haproxy/log/haproxy-info.log & ~ 3.Now restart the rsyslog service service rsyslog restart Thanks & Regards, Kuldip Madnani On Tue, Feb 4, 2014 at 4:44 PM, Willy Tarreau <w...@1wt.eu> wrote: > Hi Ryan, > > On Tue, Feb 04, 2014 at 04:00:14PM -0600, Ryan O'Hara wrote: > > On Tue, Feb 04, 2014 at 02:05:24PM -0600, Kuldip Madnani wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > > > I want to redirect the logs generated by HAProxy into some specific > file .I > > > read that in the global section in log option i can put a file location > > > instead of IP address.I tried using that setting but it dint work for > me, > > > also i enabled tcp logging in my listener but no luck.Could any body > tell > > > if i am missing something.Here is my configuration: > > > global > > > ........ > > > log /opt/app/workload/haproxy/log/haproxy.log syslog info > > > ........ > > > > On my systems (which use rsyslog) I do this: > > > > log /dev/log local0 > > > > Then I create /etc/rsyslog.d/haproxy.conf, which contains: > > > > local0.* /var/log/haproxy > > > > And everything gets logged there. > > Just a minor point here, when you're dealing with a proxy which is used > in contexts of high load (thousands to tens of thousands of requests per > second), the unix socket's log buffers are too small on many systems, and > many log messages are dropped.
