NXLog will only capture events created after it has started, by default. If you are wanting to pull historical information from this file, you can use the following directives to tell NXLog to read the whole file: ``` Module im_file File "C:\\Users\\jiang.dengjie\\Desktop\\log.txt" ReadFromLast False SavePos False Exec parse_syslog(); ``` Otherwise, you should be able to test by adding data to the file after NXLog is running. ____ Also, If you are just wanting to parse this file one time, `nxlog-processor` may be a better option.
