Description Dalibor Pospíšil 2014-06-11 12:06:49 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #996857 +++

Description of problem:

If the following rules are present in /etc/rsyslog.conf the daemon core dumps.

if ( 1 / 0 ) == 0 then /var/log/my1.log
if ( 0 / 1 ) == 0 then /var/log/my2.log

I am not certain if the issue is directly connected to the bug 996857 but the reproducer discovers it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rsyslog-7.4.7-6.el7.x86_64

Expected result:

rsyslog does not core dump. Maybe some message could be logged if such a situation occurs in the runtime.
