asterisk users - Jun 2020 - Log queue threshold (1000) exceeded. Discarding new messages.

Hi.

I've just upgraded from Asterisk 13 to Asterisk 16 (as part of a Debian
&
Devuan version upgrade).

Whenever Asterisk starts, I'm now getting entries such as the following in
my
log file:

WARNING[13905]: logger:0 in ***: Log queue threshold (1000) exceeded. 
Discarding new messages.

Where can I set this threshold?

I don't want the system to discard new messages - mainly because the very
last
message displayed is supposed to be "Asterisk Ready", and one of our 
monitoring system checks for this and complains if it's not found (because
it
then looks like Asterisk didn't start up properly).

I'm also pretty certain that the system is discarding *all* messages beyond 
the threshold - even if they're errors rather than just warnings or verbose 
output - and obviously I want to see any errors which are detected.

I assume there's some new setting in logger.conf which I need to adjust, but
I
haven't found it documented yet :(


Thanks,


Antony.

Ah, thanks.

I didn't see that because the upgrade process kept my existing logger.conf 
instead of over-writing it with the new Asterisk 16 version (for which I'm 
grateful, since it has my own settings in it).

https://github.com/asterisk/asterisk/blob/master/configs/samples/logger.conf.sample
gave me the information I needed though - just a pity I didn't find that
when
looking up the error message :(


Regards,


Antony.

If you have to explain it, it means it doesn't work.
