Topic: Service syslog [FAILED]

[sqlerror]

Hello forum,

Somehow a modification on my 5.12 SME server has left the logging in a faulty state.

I need to know how to get the syslog service initiated again using the SME defaults. Wich config files en what templates should I check and where neccesary repair?

Cheers,
Sqlerror

Upgrade to a supported version - 5.5 or 5.6.
