Description Paul DeStefano 2017-03-27 08:13:13 UTC
Description of problem:
I'm getting warnings from rsyslog about deprecated tokens in rsyslog.conf, but I find them in the man page, just like when I looked them up.  But, I noticed that the man page is 7.2 while RPM is 8.25!

Please update documentation.

Comment 1 Jiří Vymazal 2017-04-06 06:50:14 UTC
Hi, could you please specify which errors do you mean? I suppose you are running rsyslog-8.25.0-2 then? Also, are you using default config file or custom one? And did you have modified it before updating to tihs version? Thanks for info.

Comment 2 Paul DeStefano 2017-04-12 19:54:35 UTC
Yes I have up-to-date RPM, 8.25.0-2.

I have modified default config and an keep it updated by merging changes from .rpmnew.  SOP.

Here are some of the errors:
