<h2>$FileCreateMode</h2>
<p><b>Type:</b> global configuration directive</p>
<p><b>Default:</b> 0644</p>
<p><b>Description:</b></p>
<p>The $FileCreateMode directive allows to specify the creation mode with which rsyslogd creates new files. If not specified, the value 0644 is used (which retains backward-compatibility with earlier releases). The value given must always be a 4-digit octal number, with the initial digit being zero.</p>
<p>Please note that the actual permission depend on rsyslogd's process umask. If in doubt, use "$umask 0000" right at the beginning of the configuration file to remove any restrictions.</p>
<p>$FileCreateMode may be specified multiple times. If so, it specifies the creation mode for all selector lines that follow until the next $FileCreateMode directive. Order of lines is vitally important.</p>
<p><b>Sample:</b></p>
<p><code><b>$FileCreateMode 0600</b></code></p>
<p>This sample lets rsyslog create files with read and write access only for the users it runs under.</p>
<p>The following sample is deemed to be a complete rsyslog.conf:
<p><code><b>$umask 0000 # make sure nothing interferes with the following
definitions<br>
*.* /var/log/file-with-0644-default<br>
$FileCreateMode 0600<br>
*.* /var/log/file-with-0600<br>
$FileCreateMode 0644<br>
*.* /var/log/file-with-0644</b></code></p>
<p>As you can see, open modes depend on position in the config file. Note the
first line, which is created with the hardcoded default creation mode.</p>
