"Input file does not exist"
I am using the following im_file configuration to try to collect Windows DHCP Server logs:
## Input module for Microsoft DHCP server audit logs
<Input dhcp>
Module im_file
File "C:\\Windows\\System32\\Dhcp\\DhcpSrvLog-*.log"
SavePos TRUE
PollInterval 180
Exec to_syslog_bsd();
</Input>
I also tried this without escaping the backslashes and even with "/" characters instead. I also tried using a specific filename but nothing seems to work, since I get the "input file does not exist" error.
When I try the same config but with the location being at C:\Dhcp\DhcpSrvLog-*.log, everything works. nxlog service is being run as LocalSystem. Any hints on what I would need to do next to get the logs working from their native location?
