Bug #78656 Parse errors classified as highest log-level
Submitted: 2019-10-09 11:53 UTC Modified: 2019-10-09 15:26 UTC

Description:
------------
Parse errors are classified as the highest log level (LOG_EMERG). This is problem since Centos/Fedora writes LOG_EMERG messages to all users:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/rsyslog/blob/master/f/rsyslog.conf#_59

LOG_EMERG is described as: "system is unusable". A php-script with a parse error would not in most cases render the system unstable. At most LOG_ERR or LOG_CRIT would be more suitable. Fatal errors are classified as LOG_ERR. Why not make parse errors the same level?

I agree - this setup (by default) will cause any parse-error to be broadcasted (using wall) to all users on a shared development machine
