What were you trying to do that didn't work?
When an invalid rainer script is specified, rsyslogd crashes instead of just reporting the syntax error:
# cat /etc/rsyslog.d/crash.conf if ($fromhost-ip == '192.168.0.1') or if ($fromhost-ip == '192.168.0.2') then { stop } # rsyslogd -d -n [...] 4617.291098543:main thread : operatingstate.c: osf: MSG error during parsing file /etc/rsyslog.d/crash.conf, on or before line 1: Invalid function if: prop/AddRef is passed a NULL ptr - ignoring it - further problems may occur rsyslogd: error during parsing file /etc/rsyslog.d/crash.conf, on or before line 1: Invalid function if [v8.2310.0-4.el9 try https://www.rsyslog.com/e/2207 ] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Here above I used a if xxx or if yyy which is not a valid syntax.
