Not enough fields in CSV input


#1 rico.mueller (Last updated )
Hello,

im currently try to send logs from our Exchange Server to a log Collector.

Sadly when i check the NXlogs i see the error not enough fields in CSV Input. Dose anyone know what do in this case?

 

ERROR if-else failed at line 43, character 3 in C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog\conf\nxlog.conf. statement execution has been aborted; procedure 'parse_csv' failed at line 39, character 35 in C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog\conf\nxlog.conf. statement execution has been aborted; Not enough fields in CSV input, expected 30, got 1 in input 

Configuration Code:

<Extension MessageTrackingLog>   Module      xm_csvFields   $date-time,$client-ip,$client-hostname,$server-ip,$server-hostname,$source-context,$connector-id,$source,$event-id,$internal-message-id,$message-id,$network-message-id,$recipient-address,$recipient-status,$total-bytes,$recipient-count,$related-recipient-address,$reference,$message-subject,$sender-address,$return-path,$message-info,$directionality,$tenant-id,$original-client-ip,$original-server-ip,$custom-data,$transport-traffic-type,$log-id,$schema-version    Delimiter   QuoteMethod None

I guess your log delimiter is an whitespace character. Try specifying the Delimiter in the xm_csv module like this:
 

<Extension MessageTrackingLog>
  Module        xm_csv
  Fields 		$date-time,$client-ip,$client-hostname,$server-ip,$server-hostname,$source-context,$connector-id,$source,$event-id,$internal-message-id,$message-id,$network-message-id,$recipient-address,$recipient-status,$total-bytes,$recipient-count,$related-recipient-address,$reference,$message-subject,$sender-address,$return-path,$message-info,$directionality,$tenant-id,$original-client-ip,$original-server-ip,$custom-data,$transport-traffic-type,$log-id,$schema-version
  Delimiter      " "
  QuoteMethod	 None
</Extension>
