Public bug reported:

In Neutron, we use haproxy to proxy metadata requests from instances to Nova Metadata service.
By default, haproxy logs to /dev/log but in Ubuntu, those requests get redirected by rsyslog to 
/var/log/haproxy.log which is not being collected.

ubuntu@devstack:~$ cat /etc/rsyslog.d/49-haproxy.conf 
# Create an additional socket in haproxy's chroot in order to allow logging via
# /dev/log to chroot'ed HAProxy processes
$AddUnixListenSocket /var/lib/haproxy/dev/log

# Send HAProxy messages to a dedicated logfile
if $programname startswith 'haproxy' then /var/log/haproxy.log
&~


Another possibility would be to change the haproxy.cfg file to include the log-tag option so that haproxy uses a different tag [0] and then it'd be dumped into syslog instead but this would break backwards compatibility.
