Hi,

for me ossec-logtest shows also a lot oft output, but it does start. I
think the issue is that you register your rules to every rule with level 2,
so you generate a lot of children. That's why analysisd starts slow and the
queue is not ready when the other processes expected it to be.

Best regards
