Overwritten file with the same number of lines

#1 h5Azc 5 years ago

Hi,

I monitor file which is overwritten (not appended) with the same numberof logs (3 lines). I am not able to force nxlog to send this change. Example:

file.txt before change:
1123
3256
2546
2342

file.txt after overwrite:
8888
3256
2461
2342

There is the same number of lines so size did not changed of file. What I have checked so far:

	<Schedule>
            Every 5 sec
            Exec log_info("scheduled execution at " + now());
	    module_restart();
    </Schedule>
SavePos FALSE
ReadFromLast FALSE

I use as a output file and tcp steam - the same result for both. Any advice how to force nxlog to read file again?

Could you please provide your full nxlog.conf?
