Windows Server 2012 R2 - Missing nxlog.exe

#1 gizmo83 5 years ago

I'm new to NXlog, and I'm trying to get NXlog working on a Windows Server 2012 R2 server.

I downloaded NXlog Community Edition, and amended the nxlog.conf file as I required. When trying to start the 'nxlog' service I get the following error:

"Windows could not start the nxlog service on Local Computer. Error 2: The system cannot find the file specified."

After doing some troubleshooting I noticed the file 'C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog\nxlog.exe' is missing. It doesn't seem to have got installed during installation.

I've had the same behaviour on two of my test servers, any ideas?

Antivirus software preventing the install?
