o rsyslog não inicia - o pid já existe

o rsyslog não inicia - o pid já existe

Eu estava tentando configurar o rsyslog para encaminhar logs de um arquivo específico para um syslogserver e acabei limpando toda a configuração (o serviço rsyslog estava travado - não iniciava).

então limpei tudo e instalei tudo do zero novamente... e agora falha quando tento iniciá-lo.

aqui está a versão do sistema operacional:

~# cat /etc/os-release 
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"

aqui está a versão do rsyslog

Estou um pouco preso aqui ... Pesquisei no Google a mensagem "pid já existe" e muitas outras, mas não me levou a lugar nenhum :(

Eu apreciaria um empurrãozinho aqui, por favor :( Alguma idéia do que preciso fazer?

----------- EDITAR ------------

Tentei isso de acordo com as dicas de vocês...

editei (r)syslog.service e adicione -iNONE como parâmetro

~# cat /etc/systemd/system/syslog.service 
[Unit]

Requires=syslog.socket

[Install]

recarreguei o daemon -> systemctl daemon-reload(sem mensagens de erro)

parou os doissystemctl stop syslog.socket rsyslog.service

verifiquei o status de ambos

~# systemctl status syslog.socket rsyslog.service

Dec 22 14:57:32 TW-3CXNFA-B systemd[1]: Stopped System Logging Service.

ambos estão inativos. Verifiquei então se há algum PID ativo (tudo bom)

~# ps axu | grep rsyslog
root     22747  0.0  0.0   6072   888 pts/0    S+   14:59   0:00 grep rsyslog

verificado se existe o arquivo pid ls /var/run/ | grep syslog(nenhum)

Em seguida, iniciei o serviço que resultou na mensagem de tempo limite

~# systemctl start rsyslog
Job for rsyslog.service failed because a timeout was exceeded.
See "systemctl status rsyslog.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

verificando o status

o que estou perdendo?

O local do arquivo PID padrão para rsyslog é /var/run/rsyslogd.pid(conforme descrito em man rsyslogd). catesse arquivo para saber o que há dentro.

Verifique se esse PID é realmente rsyslogd(algo como ps axu | grep $(cat /var/run/rsyslogd.pid)e ps axu | grep rsyslogd). Se estiver em execução, elimine-o conforme sugerido e remova um arquivo PID. Este é o problema com o gerente de serviço pensando que o serviço não está em execução, enquanto está (por exemplo, não foi possível parar).

Se o PID existir, mas não existir rsyslogd, não o elimine. Provavelmente não está relacionado e essa ação provavelmente causará mais danos do que benefícios. Basta remover o arquivo PID rsyslog. Isso pode ter acontecido porque o rsyslog criou o arquivo, colocou seu PID lá e depois parou, o sistema posteriormente reutilizou esse PID para outra coisa.

Agora, quando o serviço éclaramente não está correndoenão há arquivo PID enganoso, tente iniciá-lo novamente usando o gerenciador de serviços, observando a inicialização /var/log/daemon.loge outros arquivos de log ( messages, syslog) e verificando se há erros durante a inicialização.


Interessante é que desde o Debian 11 ele está configurado paranãopara escrever qualquer arquivo PID (a inicialização é semelhante a /usr/sbin/rsyslogd -n -iNONE).

Acho que este é um bug relatado através do link abaixo:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=815862

Isso parece contra-intuitivo ... mas as etapas reais a serem executadas são que você precisa parar DUAS unidades do systemd, e não apenas rsyslog.serviceou eliminar o PID do rsyslog:

systemctl stop syslog.socket rsyslog.service
