Hi, I am trying to add a custom tag message in front of the logs similar to rsyslog custom tagging, but couldn't find a module on tagging logs. The solution in te previous forum on tagging didn't work out. https://nxlog.co/question/4006/nxlog-logstash-using-custom-tags Solution in that forum : Exec $tag = 'hl7out'; Does custom tagging works for AIX ? Please provide a solution for it to reflect it in forwarded logs.

I'm using nxlog-ce-2.10.5 on AIX 6.5. Configure and make with default options. After building successfully, I tried to start nxlog with im_file and om_file, like the following: <Input messages> Module im_file File "/home/logtest/*.log" </Input> <Output file> Module om_file File "/home/logtest/1.out" </Output> <Route messages_to_tcp> Path messages => tcp </Route> But nxlog shows some error like this: 2018-07-16 08:45:16 ERROR Failed to load module from /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/input/im_file.so, rtld: 0712-001 Symbol nx_assertion_failed was referenced; from module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/input/im_file.so(), but a runtime definition; of the symbol was not found.;rtld: 0712-001 Symbol nx_module_add_logdata_input was referenced; from module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/input/im_file.so(), but a runtime definition; of the symbol was not found.;rtld: 0712-001 Symbol nx_log was referenced; from module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/input/im_file.so(), but a runtim;DSO load failed 2018-07-16 08:45:16 ERROR Failed to load module from /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/output/om_file.so, rtld: 0712-001 Symbol nx_assertion_failed was referenced; from module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/output/om_file.so(), but a runtime definition; of the symbol was not found.;rtld: 0712-001 Symbol nx_log was referenced; from module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/output/om_file.so(), but a runtime definition; of the symbol was not found.;rtld: 0712-001 Symbol nx_pool_create_child was referenced; from module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/output/om_file.so(), but a runtime de;DSO load failed 2018-07-16 08:45:16 WARNING no functional input modules! 2018-07-16 08:45:16 ERROR module 'messages' is not declared at nxlog.conf:12 2018-07-16 08:45:16 ERROR module 'tcp' is not declared at nxlog.conf:12 2018-07-16 08:45:16 ERROR route messages_to_tcp is not functional without input modules, ignored at nxlog.conf:12 2018-07-16 08:45:16 WARNING no routes defined! 2018-07-16 08:45:16 INFO nxlog-ce-2.10.5 started What did I miss?

Hello There, Please help me to get answers of below questions. 1. What all logs can be captured using NXLog client on Windows, Unix, AIX and Linux platforms? 2. What is the system prerequsites for installing NXLog client on Windows, UNIX, AIX and Linux platforms? Thank you.  

I've seen the blog posting for AIX support following the download source and compile route. Is a binary distribution of AIX in the roadmap to anyone's knowledge? Thanks,   Rob

Hello, is there any guideline for install the community edition in AIX?

Trying to run nxlog-ce 2.8.1248 on AIX 7.1. Compilation is succesful, nxlog binnary is created, but can not run. There are messages like: "ERROR Failed to load module from /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/extension/xm_syslog.so, Could not load module /usr/local/libexec/nxlog/modules/extension/xm_syslog.so.; System error: No such file or directory;DSO load file" There are static libraries (.a) in directories but dynamic (.so) not.
