Public bug reported: My rsyslog configuration listens on TCP port 514 and is bound to an address on tun0 (created by an openvpn server daemon):
module(load="imtcp") input(type="imtcp" port="514" address="10.8.9.1") This machine rebooted (due to unattended upgrades) overnight and when it came back up, rsyslog was not listening on the port. The logs show: Oct 24 03:00:16 foo rsyslogd-2077: Could not create tcp listener, ignoring port 514 bind-address 10.8.9.1. [v8.16.0 try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2077 ] A restart of rsyslogd was required to address the issue. I'm curious what the right solution to this problem would be, as the bind interface is configuration-dependent. ** Affects: rsyslog (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1799702 Title: rsyslog fails to bind to tcp socket on restart To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/+bug/1799702/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
