Sample "Sending emails with Python" not working in Windows

Hi, I am unable to run your basic example Sending emails with Python”  because nxlog is unable to load the required module.

Reducing the code to a minimal set, I found that nxlog is unable to load some basic Python modules that come bundled with the Python installation.

Following are some modules that nxlog is unable to load:

  • smtplib
  • socket
  • ssl
  • email.mime.text
  • windows_tools.users (after installing with "pip install windows_tools.users")

Same file modified to be executed directly from python.exe in same machine, runs correctly

nxlog.conf:

Panic Soft
#NoFreeOnExit TRUE

define ROOT C:\Program Files\nxlog define CERTDIR %ROOT%\cert define CONFDIR %ROOT%\conf\nxlog.d define LOGDIR %ROOT%\data

include %CONFDIR%\*.conf define LOGFILE %LOGDIR%\nxlog.log LogFile %LOGFILE%

Moduledir %ROOT%\modules CacheDir %ROOT%\data Pidfile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.pid SpoolDir %ROOT%\data

<Extension python> Module xm_python PythonCode 'c:\Program Files\nxlog\modules\extension\python\py\send_email.py' </Extension>

<Input in> Module im_null </Input>

<Output out> Module om_null </Output>

<Processor myprocessor> Module pm_null <Exec> python_call('main'); </Exec> </Processor>

<Route myroute> Path in => myprocessor => out </Route>

send_email.py:

import smtplib
#import socket
#import ssl
#import email.mime.text

pip install windows_tools.users

#import windows_tools.users as users

import json import nxlog

#def main(): def main(event): # Body that does nothing print("Hello from Main()")

nxlog.log:
