+$FailOnChownFailure
+-------------------
+
+**Type:** global configuration parameter
+
+**Default:** on
+
+**Description:**
+
+This option modifies behaviour of dynaFile creation. If different owners
+or groups are specified for new files or directories and rsyslogd fails
+to set these new owners or groups, it will log an error and NOT write to
+the file in question if that option is set to "on". If it is set to
+"off", the error will be ignored and processing continues. Keep in mind,
+that the files in this case may be (in)accessible by people who should
+not have permission. The default is "on".
+
+**Sample:**
+
+``$FailOnChownFailure off``
+
