Description
On Rudder 2.4, the nodes using syslog-ng have a bad configuration file which prevent them to start syslog-ng.
This wrong configuration seems to be an unexpanded variable:
diff -Naurw /var/rudder/modified-files/_etc_syslog-ng.conf.cf-before-edit /etc/syslog-ng.conf
[...]
filter f_local_rudder{facility(local6) and program("rudder.*");};destination loghost[...]
+$(syslog_ng_conf)
log { source(src); filter(f_console); destination(console); };
It seems that a "any::" is missing on the Techniques (although this is not the case on the Policy Template [branch 2.3] ):

I've submited a correction for the configuration; however it does not remove invalid entries from the syslog-ng that might have been configured
