Hi,

I'm trying to use nxlog to to extract three metrics from a .set file. My OS is Windows 10. I edited the .conf file in "C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog\conf" and it looks like this:

Panic Soft #NoFreeOnExit TRUE

define ROOT C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog define CERTDIR %ROOT%\cert define CONFDIR %ROOT%\conf define LOGDIR %ROOT%\data define LOGFILE %LOGDIR%\nxlog.log LogFile %LOGFILE%

Moduledir %ROOT%\modules CacheDir %ROOT%\data Pidfile %ROOT%\data\nxlog.pid SpoolDir %ROOT%\data

<Extension json> Module xm_json </Extension>

<Extension sikora> Module xm_set Fields $Nominal, $PlusTol, $Oval # fields of interest (metrics) FieldTypes string, string, string # type of variable Delimiter ; EscapeControl FALSE </Extension>

<Input sikora_logs> Module im_file File "C:\Users\50051145\Desktop\nx_log\\*.set" # imput file #ReadFromLast True #Recursive True #SavePos True ReadFromLast False Recursive False SavePos False

     if $raw_event =~ /^Macrosezione : (.+)/                                 #  creazione variabile

When I run the program I expect an output file in a folder on my desktop "C:\Users\50051145\Desktop\temp" but I get nothing. I checked the logs and I get this:

 2019-09-10 18:20:34 ERROR Failed to load module from C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog\modules\extension\xm_set.dll, The specified module could not be found.  ;

It appers that xm_set.dll library is missing, "The specified module could not be found". I found out in "C:\Program Files (x86)\nxlog\modules\extension" that nxlog doesn't come with a .set library. How can I add this library ?

Thank you

I need to create new extension module but I cannot deduce some base code structure for such thing. Is there available some piece of code for new module?
