scribe/uiscribe: May be something, maybe not - 102.5 alpha and syslog-ng

I'm only posting this in case the current alpha makes it to release.
syslog-ng is failing to load/run. Symptoms include the sidebar not loading on the System Log>General tab, only the System Messages visible, configurations in /opt/etc/syslog-ng.d not loading. Feels like a stall-out.
Everything in cli looks fine:
Code:
 Please select an option: s

      checking syslog-ng daemon ... alive.
    syslog.log default location ... /jffs/syslog.log
  ... & agrees with config file ... okay!

 checking system for necessary scribe hooks ...

          checking S01syslog-ng ... present.
         checking service-event ... present.
            checking post-mount ... present.
               checking unmount ... present.
    checking logrotate cron job ... present.
       checking directory links ... present.

 checking syslog-ng configuration ...

   syslog-ng.conf version check ... in sync. (4.7)
    syslog-ng.conf syntax check ... okay!

          scribe installed version: v3.2_1 (master)
             scribe GitHub version: v3.2_1 (master)
                    scribe is up to date!
Code:
 Please select an option: rl
 reloading syslog-ng.conf ... Config reload successful

Re-installing doesn't fix.

You could try downloading and installing the latest Scribe v3.2.2 production version from the AMTM-OSR repository:
Bash:
curl -LSs --retry 4 --retry-delay 5 --retry-connrefused \
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AMTM-OSR/scribe/master/scribe.sh \
-o /jffs/scripts/scribe && chmod 0755 /jffs/scripts/scribe && /jffs/scripts/scribe install

Both the Scribe and uiScribe production versions are almost ready to be released, but they are not yet integrated with AMTM, so if you install the OSR versions, they would not be recognized by AMTM yet.

If you decide to install them, please let us know the results. For any issues, also provide the full output generated during installation. And for any WebUI page issues, please provide clear screenshots of any errors generated/displayed on the browser console window.

The OSR scripts have fixed the problem. Well, almost - I had to recreate a filter file (dstentry) 🙃

It's a fix, thank you 👍
