Hello everyone,
We're migrating our LDAP servers to new RHEL 7. Previously we had RHEL 5.2 and Openldap logging was working just fine with the following config using syslog. ·
Set up OpenLDAP logging: o (as
root user) mkdir /var/log/openldap o (as
root user) chmod 755 /var/log/openldap o (as
root user) touch /var/log/openldap/openldap.log o (as
root user) vi /etc/syslog.conf § Add
the line “Local6.* /var/log/openldap/openldap.log” o (as
root user) kill –HUP <process ID of syslogd> The new servers have rsyslog instead of syslog and I did the same procedures in rsyslog.conf file, set olcloglevel as sync stats same as in the old server and restarted rsyslog with systemctl restart rsyslog.service .The openldap.log file is empty. I have tried local4 too and same result. My rsyslog.conf file looks like this . Can someone please help me with this? Any help is appreciated. # rsyslog v5 configuration file # For more information see /usr/share/doc/rsyslog-*/rsyslog_conf.html # If you experience problems, see http://www.rsyslog.com/doc/troubleshoot.html #### MODULES #### $ModLoad imuxsock # provides support for local system logging (e.g. via logger command) $ModLoad imklog # provides kernel logging support (previously done by rklogd) $ModLoad immark # provides --MARK-- message capability # Provides UDP syslog reception $ModLoad imudp $UDPServerRun 514 # Provides TCP syslog reception $ModLoad imtcp $InputTCPServerRun 514 #### GLOBAL DIRECTIVES #### # Use default timestamp format $ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat # File syncing capability is disabled by default.
