Saving the settings results in a segfault caused by the C program: Jan 7 14:00:01 firewall kernel: syslogdctrl[32260]: segfault at 0 ip 00006d5bca1970f2 sp 000079c0d1549018 error 6 in libc-2.25.so[6d5bca0f1000+1ba000] Jan 7 14:00:01 firewall kernel: grsec: Segmentation fault occurred at (nil) in /usr/local/bin/syslogdctrl[syslogdctrl:32260] uid/euid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0, parent /srv/web/ipfire/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/config.dat[config.dat:32167] uid/euid:99/99 gid/egid:99/99 This happens for both UDP and TCP and can be easily reproduced by trying to configure a remote syslog server in the WebUI. It is related to https://bugzilla.ipfire.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11540 .
I cannot reproduce this with the final release of C117. What is your configuration?
My configuration is: - remote syslog enabled - IP: 10.XXX.XXX.XXX - protocol: TCP (also crashes with UDP) The relevant files have these SHA256 checksums: 63958e3bcc2502aef821ab5011e6616787d3b3f5833c394b460fe293c1e04195 /usr/local/bin/syslogdctrl dfe90b1791d584c8db9b0ae9326b80ce9b2952ae069b4aa659af3c4cc6078ccd /srv/web/ipfire/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/config.dat I am running on Core 117 (upgraded from 116) at x86_64. The WebUI displays: "Das Hilfsprogramm hat einen Fehlercode gemeldet 0.04296875", the /var/log/messages file: Jan 10 20:40:24 firewall kernel: syslogdctrl[21677]: segfault at 0 ip 00007c02792860f2 sp 00007ea3804df648 error 6 in libc-2.25.so[7c02791e0000+1ba000] Jan 10 20:40:24 firewall kernel: grsec: Segmentation fault occurred at (nil) in /usr/local/bin/syslogdctrl[syslogdctrl:21677] uid/euid:0/0 gid/egid:0/0, parent /srv/web/ipfire/cgi-bin/logs.cgi/config.dat[config.dat:21675] uid/euid:99/99 gid/egid:99/99 Strange. :-| If you need further information, please contact me.
Tested on a second machine upgraded from Core Update 116: Same behaviour, same error code.
Could you send the configuration file that the binary is reading?
Created attachment 553 [details] syslog.conf on the machines upgraded from Core Update 116
/var/ipfire/logging/settings, please :)
I'm getting same error after upgraded from 116. I even wiped my machine and installed core update 117 from scratch and I still have same issue and I'm not getting any logs sent out to the syslog server. Here's my /var/ipfire/logging/settings ENABLE_REMOTELOG=on LOGWATCH_LEVEL=High LOGWATCH_KEEP=56 LOGVIEW_VIEWSIZE=150 REMOTELOG_PROTOCOL=udp REMOTELOG_ADDR=192.168.2.2 LOGVIEW_REVERSE=off

Yes, it solves the problem initially. However, since sysklogd is unable to do remote logging via anything else than UDP, we need to switch to another software first. I think Erik is currently testing rsyslog. In my opinion, this can be closed. If it can't, please reopen.
