Describe the bug

Hi Support team,

We are using Fluentd in a Docker container but are unable to forward the host syslog to an external syslog collector server.

After starting the container, it continuously restarts due to an error

error_class=Fluent::NotFoundPluginError error="Unknown output plugin 'remote_syslog'. Run 'gem search -rd fluent-plugin' to find plugins"

Requesting your assistance in resolving this issue so that we can successfully forward syslog logs from the host node to the external server.

fluent.zip

fluentd logs.txt
Dockerfile.txt

For your reference, we have attached the Dockerfile, Compose file, fluentd.yaml, and container logs.

Link to the problematic documentation

https://docs.fluentd.org/output/forward

Expected explanation

Kindly help us to forward syslog logs from the host node to the external server.
