Collectd crashes if I have this in my collectd configuration:
<Plugin filecount>
<Directory "/var/qmail">
Instance "Qmail queue"
# <Directory "/path/to/dir">
# Instance "foodir"
# Name "*.conf"
# MTime "-5m"
# Size "+10k"
# </Directory> <---- NOT A TYPO
</Plugin>
If you remove the # from the </Directory> line, collectd starts
without problems.
This is /var/log/messages content:
