Initializing the SyslogHandler should not do a permissions check when setting the output stream ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: LOGMGR-149 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/LOGMGR-149 Project: JBoss Log Manager Issue Type: Bug Reporter: James Perkins Fix For: 1.5.8.Final, 2.0.7.Final, 2.1.0.Beta1 The {{org.jboss.logmanager.handlers.SyslogHandler}} attempts to lazily connect to the syslog server. If running under a security manager and the user (deployment in WildFly's case) doesn't have {{control}} logging permissions, the write will fail. The failure is also swallowed which means there is no indication as to what the error is. Logs will just not appear on the syslog server.
