Regding OSSEC
 

FYI...

Installed OSSEC server version 2.6 in Cent OS 6.2 and agents are web servers

installed in chroot environment.

Moreover ossec server and apache (web servers are agents) are installed in separate machines.


In ossec.conf file, added below configuration in both server and agent.

<localfile>
<log_format>syslog</log_format>
<location>/chroot/site/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log</location>
</localfile>


Already in decoder.xml and in rules folder apache related configuration is set

by default.


Problem : Ossec is not working for apache logs, not even generating


mails related to Apache errors , rest of the ossec part is working as needed.

Please guide me what has to be done to solve the issue.
