Manual pages: syslog-ng(8),syslog-ng.conf(5), logger(1), syslog(2), syslog(3), services(5), syslog.conf(5), klogd(8), syslogd(8), sysklogd(8)
FreeBSD
As of FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE:
You can not restart syslog-ng.sh in the local directory, you need to use the complete path.
# pwd
/usr/local/etc/rc.d
# ./syslog-ng.sh
./syslog-ng.sh: Cannot determine the PREFIX
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/syslog-ng.sh
Usage: syslog-ng.sh {start|stop}
also make sure you do not have
syslogd_flags="-d"
still set in rc.conf or you'll be stuck in debug mode during init the next time you reboot. Remove the -d.
syslogd_program="/usr/local/sbin/syslog-ng" syslogd_flags=""
