Same issue encountered when upgrading to rsyslog-7.4.7-12.el7.x86_64 with syslog-ng-3.5.6-1.el7.x86_64 installed. +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1269245 +++ Description of problem: syslog-ng and rsyslog both wants to install the file: /etc/logrotate.d/syslog To be able to have both excellent loggers installed at the same time this file must be identical. I have sent a request to rsyslog package: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1269244 to change their version of /etc/logrotate.d/syslog such that syslog-ng also can use the file unmodified. Attached is a patch to change /etc/logrotate.d/syslog in syslog-ng to the same version, this way users of both packages will be happy. Setup has been tested, install both rsyslog and syslog-ng is now possible, make it very easy to switch between loggers as users may want. Logrotate works as before. Please apply attached patch.
