rsyslog fails to start
After installing rsyslog,
apk add rsyslog
and attempting to start it,
rc-service rsyslog start
I get the following error:
rc-service rsyslog start
* Starting rsyslogd …
* start-stop-daemon: failed to start `/usr/sbin/rsyslogd’ [ !! ]
* ERROR: rsyslog failed to start
When I try to start rsyslog on boot,
rc-update add rsyslog default
I get this error in /var/log/messages,
daemon.err /etc/init.d/cron[1890]: ERROR: cannot start cron as rsyslog would not start
rc-status shows:
Runlevel: default
rsyslog [ stopped ]
chronyd [ started ]
sshd [ started ]
cron [ stopped ]
acpid [ started ]
