How to fix 'Permission denied error'?

[Anil Wadghule]

When I have following config

{
"type": "shell",
"inline":[
"sudo echo '$PreserveFQDN on' >> /etc/rsyslog.d/server.conf”,
]
} ] }

I get this error

==> amazon-ebs: /tmp/script_1019.sh: 27: /tmp/script_1019.sh: cannot create /etc/rsyslog.d/server.conf: Permission denied

I know sudo mv a local file would fix that, but I don’t want to copy whole server.conf locally and move.

cannot create /etc/rsyslog.d/server.conf: Permission denied

Thanks,
Anil

It should be "sudo bash -c 'echo \'$PreserveFQDN on\' >> /etc/rsyslog.d/server.conf'"
