Hello team,How to get NXLog Manager license?Thank you Klevin

HiIs it possible to install nxlog-ce-3.1.2319.msi on Windows 2008 R2?Regards.

TEST

Hi, Doing my first steps with NXlog.I have managed to collect all “Security” windows event log and also managed to update the “Version” parameter to my own parameter - Just for a test purposes Now I need to perform 3 tasks Collect all “Security” windows event log - DoneUpdate the “Version” parameter from int to string - Done Update the “Hostname” parameter of specific event ID (for example EventID":4656) to “test”  - Please advice Thank you <Input eventlog>   Module  im_msvistalog   <QueryXML>       <QueryList>           <Query Id='0'>    <Select Path='Security'>*</Select>           </Query>       </QueryList>   </QueryXML><Exec>       $Hostname = "test" ;      # This task should be only for eventID 4656       $Version = string($Version);       to_json();   </Exec></Input> 

I am trying to use the example in https://docs.nxlog.co/ce/current/index.html#om_file for file rotation on Windows (nxlog-ce-3.1.2319).I receive the following errorERROR Couldn't parse Exec block at xxx.conf:104; couldn't parse statement at line 107, character 29 in xxx.conf; module file not found ERROR module 'testfile' has configuration errorsusing this configuration.   The output works fine if I don't use the functions,  so I assume om_file must be loading (by default?).<Output testfile> Module om_file File "E:/nxlog_output/active/nxlog-out.txt" <Exec> # Format output to_json(); # Rotate file based on size, move to staging folder if (file-&gt;file_size() &gt; 10M) { $stagingFolder = 'E:/nxlog_output/staged/'; $newfile = $stagingFolder + 'data_' + strftime(now(), '%Y%m%d%H%M%S') + '.log'; file-&gt;rotate_to($newfile); } &lt;/Exec&gt; </Output> 

Apologies if I'm being dense, but I need some help with navigation of this site.The upper-right search box on this page, (https://nxlog.co/community-forum/) never submits.   Is there another search function I can use?Google search results all point to URLs like https://nxlog.co/question/4970/iis-logs-containing-quotes-are-not-processing,  which return a 404 when I click through.

Hi,I have installed nxlog service (nxlog-ce-3.1.2319.msi) on windows core 2019 machine. I have a config:define EVENT_REGEX /^.*(<EventData>.+<\/EventData>)$/ <Extension xml> Module xm_xml </Extension> <Extension json> Module xm_json </Extension> <Input k8s_containers> Module im_file File "c:\var\log\containers*.log" <Exec> if $raw_event =~ %EVENT_REGEX% { parse_xml($1); } else { drop(); } $log_type = "k8s_container"; $hostname = hostname(); $host_ip = host_ip(); $log_file = file_name(); if $log_file =~ /(.+)_(.+)_(.+)-(.+).log$/ { $k8s_pod = $1; $k8s_namespace = $2; $k8s_container = $3; $k8s_container_id = $4; } to_json(); &lt;/Exec&gt; </Input> <Output file> Module om_file File "c:\k\nxlog.log" </Output> <Route containerlog> Path k8s_containers => file </Route>Everythings work fine, but log line has “log_file”: “unknown”. And because of that I didn't get $k8s_* fields.How should I debug/resolv this issue?

Does nxlog community edition support IBM AIX & SUN Solaris?

Is there a combination of inputs and extensions that can be used to collect RADIUS accounting messages via UDP listener? We use Microsoft NPS today, but could benefit from the forking and advanced parsing of NXLog. We send RADIUS accounting messages from multiple network devices and the differences in data layout are bit too much for NPS.

Forgive my ignorance but I'm looking to use NX Log to capture all windows events under System, Application and Security whether they be Audit, Info, error or critical. Am I correct in my assumption that with no filter's it should collect everything? <Select Path='Application'></Select> <Select Path='Security'></Select> <Select Path='System'></Select> or do I need to specify on single lines each severity level? for example: <Select Path='Application'>[System/Level=4]</Select> <Select Path='Application'>[System/Level=3]</Select> <Select Path='Application'>[System/Level=2]</Select> and so on?

Hi guys, We have NXLog CE 3.0.2272 installed on a server which was originally installed by another user manually. We have tried uninstalling it via the uninstall string MsiExec.exe /X {xxxxx} via ConnectWise which appeared to have uninstalled ok. Since then, we have installed a newer CE version 3.1.2319 however after installation the nxlog service is non-existent. We suspect the uninstallation via string may have broken this. Several attempts using the original installer to repair or uninstall/reboots does not fix this. Is there a way we can start fresh to remove NXLog completely then install? Any help would be appreciated :) TIA Jordan

Hellow everyone! I have a scenario that uses Citrix MCS where I installed the agent on the master image that provides clone images that should go with the nxlog agent installed and running. But the agent goes up with some errors as below: 2022-09-23 13:51:38 ERROR couldn't connect to udp socket on <IP:XYZ:514>; The socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network. 2022-09-23 13:51:46 WARNING Due to the limitation in the Windows EventLog subsystem, the query cannot contain more than 256 sources. 2022-09-23 13:51:46 WARNING The following sources are omitted to avoid exceeding the limit in the generated query: Setup WitnessClientAdmin 2022-09-23 13:52:14 WARNING received a system shutdown request 2022-09-23 13:52:14 WARNING stopping nxlog service 2022-09-23 13:52:14 WARNING nxlog-ce received a termination request signal, exiting... 2022-11-02 23:16:38 INFO nxlog-ce-2.11.2190 started 2022-11-02 23:16:44 WARNING Due to the limitation in the Windows EventLog subsystem, the query cannot contain more than 256 sources. 2022-11-02 23:16:44 WARNING The following sources are omitted to avoid exceeding the limit in the generated query: Setup WitnessClientAdmin 2022-11-02 23:27:15 ERROR EvtNext failed with error 15007: The specified channel could not be found.

Has anyone had a problem like this using Citrix MCS? Thanks James \0/

Hello! We have permanent memory leaks on Windows Event Collect server with any 5 version NXLog. If we install any 4 version - it work without memory leak, but very slowly - it's accumulating queue on single filter for windows events. How we can help to fix it in next release?

Hi, I use NXLog to send log of an Oracle Database to Graylog. When i send the log to a INPUT in Graylog, the logs in Graylog are not in the same order as the source logfile. I have configured an output to send event in an other logfile and in the new log the event are ine the same order as the source logfile. Configuration to the UDP Output Graylog where the event are not in the same order as the source logfile. <Extension gelf> Module xm_gelf ShortMessageLength 200 </Extension> <Input ora-database-rman> Module im_file File "/oracle/rman/logs/DATABASE_*.log" </Input> <Output ext-graylog> Module om_udp Host XX.XX.XX.XX Port XXXXX OutputType GELF_UDP </Output> <Route database-rman Path ora-database-rman => ext-graylog </Route> Configuration to the om_file module loca where the event are in the same order as the source logfile. <Input ora-database-rman> Module im_file File "/oracle/rman/logs/DATABASE_*.log" Exec sleep(100); </Input> <Output fileout> File 'tmp/output' Module om_file </Output> <Route database-rman Path ora-database-rman => fileout </Route> Do you have an idea how to get the event in the order to the OUTPUT TCP ? Thanks for your help, Matt

Hello all, I have an application that sends log files to a directory formatted at YYYY-MM-DD.log (year, month, day). I'm watching the directory with the following stanza in the configuration file, but it does not recognize when the date changes and a new file is created. A service restart gets it reading the new file. The configuration is as follows: <Input cvdupdate> Module im_file File "/var/log/cvdupdate/*.log" </Input> I'm running NXLog on a Ubuntu 18.04 system. The version is 3.0.2272.

Hi, I'm using NXLOG Community to transfer logs in and out, from Windows clients to a Linux server with an NXLOG agent for log collection. The logs arrive correctly, the only thing is that for the event viewer (example) 4624, I see logs with the same time, even in milliseconds, but the message varies only for a few lines of the "message" field. I wanted to avoid using the repeat module because I would create the same a log recording increasing the database.

Hi, i have below replace function for replacing "|0" to "Zero". Exec $Message = replace($Message, "|0 ", "Zero"); now, i want to replace "|0" to "|15" with Zero. do i need to add 15 more Exec replace function, or is there is any way to replace using single exec using regex?

Greetings! I have a vulnerability in jQuery to be addressed in the nxlog manager v5 (5.5.5398). This is related to XSS vulnerabilities from the version of jQuery installed (1.8.3, 1.9.2 ui) . Will upgrading Manager to 5.6.5633 resolve the issue and update jQuery to 3.5.0+ ? If not, please can you provide steps to update jQuery manually? Thanks! Shyam (on behalf of Shashidhar Ghiliyal)

Hi all, I think there might be a bug in the im_odbc module in the Linux (Debian11) im_odbc module for NXLog 5.6.7727 EE when used with the FreeTDS driver (via unixODBC) - so for example if you try to connect to MS SQL or Sybase databases. Although all the drivers etc. were configured correctly (it was basically a copy from a system where it used to work) and connecting to the databases via ISQL worked fine, the Agent wasn't able to fetch logs and produced following errors in the nxlog.log: INFO [im_odbc|inputxy] im_odbc successfully connected to the database WARNING [im_odbc|inputxy] im_odbc detected a disconnection, attempting to reconnect in 1200 seconds ERROR [im_odbc|inputxy] SQLDescribeParam failed, IM001:2:0:[unixODBC][Driver Manager]Driver does not support this function (odbc error code: -1) I've tested multiple FreeTDS driver versions with multiple compile options - but none of them worked. Finally I figured to try a different NXLog version, so I downloaded the NXLog Agent EE 4.10.5000 for debian10 and it worked out of the box with the standard FreeTDS driver from the Debian11 repo (v1.2.3) and unixODBC (2.3.6). So my conclusion is that there is a bug in the 5.6 EE NXLog Agent Version regarding the im_odbc module when used with FreeTDS (at least for Debian 11). So while using 4.10 as a fallback is nice, it would be great to use the newer 5.x versions in the future. BR Reinhard
