Syslog configuration failed. See http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2003322 for manual configuration. (Details: Client received SOAP Fault from server: A general system error occurred: Internal error
Please see the server log to find more detail regarding exact cause of the failure.)

fill this field : syslog.global.loghost with tcp://hostname:514
hostname means log insight

It is because of DNS issue you should provide correct FQDN
This blog can help you
ESXi syslog - A general system error occurred: Internal error - SFlanders.net

You might also find that if you already had an ESXi host configured with Log Insight and are redeploying you could run into this issue as well. Simply edit the host configuration for this entry: syslog.global.loghost with tcp://hostname:514 and delete the value and save as blank. Go back into Log Insight and reconfigure the host, success.
Experiencing this problem with following environment
vRealize Log Insight Manager : 4.7.1
vCenter : 6.7
vSphere : 6.5
In this case host doesn't accept the change in value of "Syslog.global.logHost" , has anybody else seen this issue.
I was having same issue, i stood up a new log insight server and was not able to set new or delete old, until i reset logDir to defaults.
Try configuring Syslog in the ESXi host manually. Run the following commands
esxcli system syslog config set --loghost='tcp://172.20.xxx.xxx:514'
esxcli system syslog reload
nc -z 172.20.xxx.xxx 514
