Troubleshooting Signoz Server Syslog Receiver Issue
TLDR Jun had issues with syslog receiver on Signoz server. After suggestions from nitya-signoz and Hannes, and modifying IP settings on docker-compose.yaml, problem was resolved.

Fri, 25 Aug 2023 01:56:35 UTCOn docker-compose.yaml, I have configured the 54527 port to be opened for otel-collector And on the otel-collector-config.yaml, I have configrued a syslog receiver along with adding that receiver under the service section
