Message length overflow
Hi all,
I'm running SLES10 and since yesterday I notice in /var/log/message
this warning(?):
syslog-ng[30202]: Message length overflow, line is split, log_msg_size=2048
What does this message mean?
Where I can find the log_msg_size directive?
Thanks

It means what it says. some line was over length and was split to two lines. The max line width is set to 2048. So some line was over 2048 characters long. There is nothing wrong with this but you might want to look at that over width line to see if it tells you something important.
