Hi all,
I'm trying to change the timestamp appears in my openLDAP logs. Today it's
the default timestamp (Nov 22 11:55:02), but for debugging reasons I need
to show the milliseconds (something like Nov 22 11:55:02:987 or any other
format with milliseconds).
The logs output are managed by the /etc/rsyslog.d/openldap.conf file:
> #Configuration specifique openldap
> local4.* @10.2.32.95:514
> local4.* -/custom/log/openldap.log
> local5.* @10.2.32.95:514
> local5.* -/custom/log/openldap-oldschema.log
My /etc/rsyslog.conf configuration looks like:
> # Use default timestamp format
> $ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_TraditionalFileFormat
For testing purposes, I change it to:
> # Use default timestamp format
> $ActionFileDefaultTemplate RSYSLOG_FileFormat
Or even to:
> # Use default timestamp format
> $template myFormat,"PRI: %pri%, MSG: %msg%\n"
> $ActionFileDefaultTemplate myFormat
But I see no changes in the timestamp (I restart the rsyslog service at
each modification)
I also notice that I'm just getting the first instance log
(-/custom/log/openldap.log), I'm not seeing the second one
(-/custom/log/openldap-oldschema.log).
Viewing this I have two questions:
- why my second instance doesn't log?
- why my log timestamp doesn't change when I change the configuration file?
I would like to thank you in advance for all the help,
Marc
