why is a chroot involved with rsyslog or the database? are you running a second
copy of rsyslog inside the chroot?

Environment
Ah...so I now have mysql client working the the chroot environment and the
chroot user was able to connect to the db using the mysql client, and I
also have rsyslog lib inside of it as well...still no deal as far as
loggin to mysql DB with the chroot user...
The doc on ommysql has very limited info...would the creator of it please
chime in on this issue? Or anyone who had done this before.
Please...please...please...thx so much!

Hi,
are you familiar with running programs in a chroot environment? I.e. you
know that you have to provide each SO (library) used by the program you
will be running chrooted?
First I would check that the "mysql" program works in that
environment. I.e. become the user which will run rsyslogd later and chroot
into that environment and try to connect to your desired mysqld server
using the same connection (socket or TCP/IP) and credentials your rsyslogd
will use.
When you are unable to connect to you mysqld there's a problem with
missing dependencies, your linux user maybe don't have the privileges to
access the mysqld socket or establish a TCP/IP connection, your used
credentials could be wrong or the mysql user is not allowed to connect
from that host (check mysql host restrictions!).
Once you can connect to your mysqld from the chroot environment using
the "mysql" program make sure that all rsyslogd dependencies are available
from that environment like you have done before for the mysql program
(don't forget to check rsyslogd's modules!).
Now rsyslogd should be able to connect to that mysqld, too.
If not run rsyslogd in foreground/with debug output and check mysqld
logs (you need to set "log-warnings = 2" in your mysqld to log failed login
attempts).
