That system was upgraded several times, so I really can't tell where
this line comes from, sorry.


Best,

Title:
  Messages not being sent to system logs

Status in Rsyslog:
  Fix Released
Status in “rsyslog” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  First reported on Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha3
  It affects Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Final Release, too.

  rsyslogd: [origin software="rsyslogd" swVersion="4.2.0" x-pid="2296"
  x-info="http://www.rsyslog.com"] rsyslogd was HUPed, type
  'lightweight'.

  After the above message in syslog no more messages are sent to any
  system logs. Plugging and unplugging an usb device produce no
  messages, although the device is mounted an works fine. Also, nothing
  is produced by the logger command.

  The problem occurs in a desktop and in a VirtualBox virtual machine.
  It occurred soon after karmic alpha 3 installation and persisted after
  installing all available updates in both environments.

  I'm attaching a typical syslog.
