Hi Team, Recently I started testing NXLog and was tryingto simulate log forwarding to other syslog servers. My logs are stored in *.log files and I want to forward them to another syslog destination. But after so many attempts, I still fail, and my logs are not forwarded. I also tried writing to another file using om_file but that does not help me as well. The NXLog's logs are of not much help, as It is stuck with just "Connecting to X.X.X.X:514 and never does anything ahead of it. IT does not show any warning / error as well. How do I investigate, what went wrong. I am on Ubuntu 16.04 with NXLog CE 2.10.2150 downloaded from this portal. Below is my configuration, <Input infile1> Module im_file File "/opt/logs/pix.log" InputType LineBased </Input> <Output outfile1> Module om_file CreateDir TRUE File "/opt/logs/output.log" </Output> <Output outtcp1> Module om_tcp Host X.X.X.X Port 514 </Output> <Route r1> path infile1 => outtcp1, outfile1 </Route> I have checked on the network side, did Telnet (for TCP) and NC (for UDP) everything works fine, even rsyslog is able to forward data but NXLog fails.

My company is looking to setup NxLog. We are having issues reading in multiline exception logs from applications such as Tomcat, Java, Apache etc. I am able to read in the files but unfortunately the output in our GrayLog application is showing every event as one line. I tried to implement the xm_multiline module but i seem to be having issues getting it to work.   installed NxLog and checked my configuration to the following below. restarted the services, let the service run all night and still the output is the same as shown below.   Sample Input Log: 07/07/2016 13:35:11.654 [tomcat-http--43] [ERROR] [4114723 ms] Warning - unprocessed rows in esolutions.care.assess.WeAssessment esolutions.EsolutionsException: There were 83 unprocessed rows out of 84     at esolutions.base.WeObject.sleep(WeObject.java:2767)     at esolutions.base.WeObject.clear(WeObject.java:3250)     at esolutions.care.assess.WeAssessment.clear(WeAssessment.java:7699)     at esolutions.base.WeObject.close(WeObject.java:2815)     at esolutions.util.WeHTMLTable.getTableHTML(WeHTMLTable.java:541)     at esolutions.util.WeHTMLTable.toHTML(WeHTMLTable.java:508)     at org.apache.jsp.admin.client.cp_005fassessment_jsp._jspService(cp_005fassessment_jsp.java:4412)     at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:70) 07/07/2016 13:36:21.828 [tomcat-http--26] [ERROR] [4184897 ms] Warning - unprocessed rows in esolutions.care.assess.WeAssessment esolutions.EsolutionsException: There were 82 unprocessed rows out of 83     at esolutions.base.WeObject.sleep(WeObject.java:2767)     at esolutions.base.WeObject.clear(WeObject.java:3250)     at esolutions.care.assess.WeAssessment.clear(WeAssessment.java:7699)     at esolutions.base.WeObject.close(WeObject.java:2815)     at esolutions.util.WeHTMLTable.getTableHTML(WeHTMLTable.java:541)     at esolutions.util.WeHTMLTable.toHTML(WeHTMLTable.java:508)     at org.apache.jsp.admin.client.cp_005fassessment_jsp._jspService(cp_005fassessment_jsp.java:4412)     at org.apache.jasper.runtime.HttpJspBase.service(HttpJspBase.java:70)     at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:727)     at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:432)     Sample Output From GrayLog in CSV format.
