Mas quando executo o comando rsyslogd -N1 , tenho o seguinte erro:

rsyslogd: version 5.8.11, config validation run (level 1), master config /etc/rsyslog.conf
rsyslogd: WARNING: rsyslogd is running in compatibility mode. Automatically generated config directives may interfer with your rsyslog.conf settings. We suggest upgrading your config and adding -c5 as the first rsyslogd option.
rsyslogd: CONFIG ERROR: could not interpret master config file '/etc/rsyslog.conf'. [try http://www.rsyslog.com/e/2013 ]
rsyslogd: EMERGENCY CONFIGURATION ACTIVATED - fix rsyslog config file!
rsyslogd: Warning: backward compatibility layer added to following directive to rsyslog.conf: ModLoad immark
rsyslogd: Warning: backward compatibility layer added to following directive to rsyslog.conf: MarkMessagePeriod 1200
rsyslogd: Warning: backward compatibility layer added to following directive to rsyslog.conf: ModLoad imuxsock

Na verdade, não me lembrei das seguintes linhas

# provides UDP syslog reception

    $ModLoad imudp
    $UDPServerRun 514

e adicionou a seguinte linha

local1.*            -/var/log/local1.log

mas não acredito que isso seja consequência do meu erro.

Alguma ideia de porque recebo este erro?

ATUALIZAÇÃO [15 de dezembro de 2013 @ 14: 41]

Como sugerido por [Nikolaidis Fotis] , parei o serviço (service rsyslog stop) e iniciei manualmente:

root@xxxx:/# /usr/sbin/rsyslogd -c5 -v

rsyslogd 5.8.11, compiled with:
    FEATURE_REGEXP:             Yes
    FEATURE_LARGEFILE:          No
    GSSAPI Kerberos 5 support:      Yes
    FEATURE_DEBUG (debug build, slow code): No
    32bit Atomic operations supported:  Yes
    64bit Atomic operations supported:  Yes
    Runtime Instrumentation (slow code):    No

Answer 1

Tente executar o rsyslog no modo de depuração e com o modo de não compatibilidade (-c5, por exemplo)
