Code error in line where there is no code
EZ created
When I use xm_perl with this code from /usr/libexec/nxlog/modules/extension/perl/event1.pl:
use Log::Nxlog;
use strict;
use warnings;
use feature 'say';
use JSON;
use utf8;
sub rec2msg {
my $msgsrcaddr = Log::Nxlog::get_field($event, 'MessageSourceAddress');
if ( defined($msgsrcaddr) )
{
Log::Nxlog::set_field_string($event, 'MessageSourceCountry', "France");
}
}
It gives me strange error:
syntax error at /usr/libexec/nxlog/modules/extension/perl/event1.pl line 16, at EOF
However , there is no code at line 16 at all. What does that mean? It happens when I use any perl code.

How could I pass output of to_json() from nxlog.conf to perl file?
EZ created
Hi, I have this type of input in nxlog.conf:
<Input udp>
Module im_udp
Host 0.0.0.0
Port 514
Exec parse_syslog(); to_json(); perl_call("process");
</Input>
My question is, how should I include that JSON output that I get from to_json() to my perl code? Should I write like this?:
my ( $event ) = @_;
Or it's only the output of parse_syslog_bsd() (as in example for xm_perl https://nxlog.co/documentation/nxlog-user-guide/xm_perl.html)? More generally, my question is how to include JSON output that i get from to_json() to perl code of xm_perl module?

xm_perl.dll is not present in extension directory

I am trying to use the perl extension in Windows, but nxlog complains that it cannot find the xm_perl.dll. The complaint is correct, the file is not there. My question is why? Does the windows version not support using perl?
