"Exec convert_fields("AUTO", "utf-8");" not working.
Hello. I like to collect Windows Event ID and send it to Linux Box. I installed "Syslog-NG" on Linux and it collect Windows Event Log very good but I have a problem about "Exec convert_fields("AUTO", "utf-8");". When I enable it in my config file then my "nxlog" can't send log!!! My "nxlog" config is:   ## This is a sample configuration file. See the nxlog reference manual about the ## configuration options. It should be installed locally and is also available ## online at http://nxlog.org/docs/ ## Please set the ROOT to the folder your nxlog was installed into, ## otherwise it will not start. #define ROOT C:\Program Files\nxlog define ROOT C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog Moduledir %ROOT%\modules CacheDir %ROOT%\data Pidfile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.pid SpoolDir %ROOT%\data LogFile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.log <Extension _syslog>     Module      xm_syslog     AutodetectCharsets utf-8 </Extension> <Input in>     Module      im_msvistalog # For windows 2003 and earlier use the following: #   Module      im_mseventlog     Exec if $EventID NOT IN (4660, 4663) drop();      Exec convert_fields("AUTO", "utf-8"); </Input> <Output out>     Module      om_udp     Host        172.30.9.20     Port        514     Exec        to_syslog_snare();  </Output> <Route 1>     Path        in => out </Route>   Any idea?   Thank you.
