debugging UDP GELF stream of messages
Hi,
New to this community . I use nxlog community edition. My collegue sends from the source side (nxlog) hundreds of msgs in UDP GELF format to graylog syslog utility . Half of them are accepted, the other half get rejected with error "short_message" field is empty.
I trieded tcpdump , but nothing visible can be seen. Is there a way that nxlog can berecofigured, so that it will send msgs in more readable format, so I can decide if it is OK that those msgs are rejected. It can be even sent sent to TCP ,
Most important config details in nxlog:
<Route 2> Path dns => out </Route>
Module im_msvistalog Exec if not ($Severity == 'ERROR' or $Severity == 'CRITICAL' or $EventID IN (624, 630, 631, 634, 635, 638, 658, 662, 4624, 4625, 4720, 4726, 4727, 4728, 4729, 4730, 4731, 4732, 4733, 4734, 4735, 4737, 4740, 4741, 4742, 4743, 4754, 4755, 4756, 4757, 4758, 4764, 4767)) drop();
Exec if ($EventID == 4769) drop();
<Route 1> Path in => out2 </Route>
Thanks in advance.
