4.4.0 at least doesn't fix it, can you try 4.6.0?
(In reply to Sam James from comment #2) > 4.4.0 at least doesn't fix it, can you try 4.6.0? Actually, I've been using 4.4.0-r1 for a while now on a bunch of servers without issues.
I have not had any issues on any of my systems. Currently running 4.2.0 on all systems. Based on the report, it looks like the issue is on sparc64 architecture. Why is everyone else being forced to downgrade?
This downgrade caused some problems for me because of stats_freq syntax Correct Syntax for 4.0.X: > stats(freq(43200)); Correct syntax for 4.2.X: > stats_freq(43200); When downgrading from 4.2.X to 4.0.X, syslog-ng won't start > * Checking your configfile (/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf) ...[2024-02-06T14:55:01.257365] WARNING: Configuration file format is newer than the current version, please specify the current version number (4.0) in the @version directive. syslog-ng will operate at its highest supported version in this mode; config-version='4.2' > [2024-02-06T14:55:01.261382] WARNING: Your configuration file uses an obsoleted keyword, please update your configuration; keyword='stats', change='stats_freq', location='/etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:16:2' > Error parsing options statement, syntax error, unexpected LL_IDENTIFIER, expecting LL_NUMBER in /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:16:8-16:12: > 11 > 12 # The default action of syslog-ng is to log a STATS line > 13 # to the file every 10 minutes.

Argh the other way around: Correct Syntax for 4.4.X: > stats(freq(43200)); Correct syntax for 4.0.X: > stats_freq(43200);
I have confirmed that PID logging has been fixed in version app-admin/syslog-ng-4.6.0 on x86 architecture.

I can't see a link to the upstream report. I use amd64 and have not had anything resembling this issue. Masking amd64 when it's not affected is overkill

Right, I forgot that the previous stable target was syslog-ng-4.4.0-r1 and not 4.4.0-r2 which added grpc dep which is missing KW and thus syslog-ng-4.6.0 cannot be stabilized right away.
(In reply to J. Roeleveld from comment #10) See the 'See Also' link to https://github.com/syslog-ng/syslog-ng/issues/4597. The bug might only affect 32-bit arches but there's nothing which guarantees that.

Thanks.

Sam is trying to help here and version 4.6.0 is already being stabilized.
