Problem with syslog.

[emmanuel.l]

Good evening

I'm having a problem with syslog.Here's the email I received:

Time: Sun Dec 7 18:16:57 2025 +0000Error: Failed to detect code [V8ldKNsPlOSDPJpSn] in SYSLOG_LOG [/var/log/messages]SYSLOG may not be running correctly on the server.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely, Emmanuel

Hello Emmanuel,

What will you see if you run as root:

tail /var/log/messages

If you see lines with the actual date and time, then there is most likely no issue with syslog at the moment.
