HI,
Is there any solution to use wildcard chars in the path in the file input setting?
I have these folders:
/path/to/logs/t-01test/log/app.log
/path/to/logs/t-02apple/log/app_20200427.log
/path/to/logs/t-03horse/log/app.log
/path/to/logs/t-04table/log/app.log
I used this input settings:
<Input in_app>
Module im_file
File "/path/to/logs/t-*/log/app*.log"
SavePos TRUE
InputType LineBased
</Input>
I always get the ERROR failed to open directory: /path/to/logs/t-*/logs: No such file or directory
I used this setting before:
<Input in_app>
Module im_file
File "/path/to/logs/*app*.log"
SavePos TRUE
InputType LineBased
</Input>
This is working correctly but we have added some folders under the /path/to/logs/t-01test/ where the nxlog user cant read for security reasons.
The nxlog log is full with errors because of enough rights:
ERROR failed to open directory: path/to/logs/t-01test/conf: Permission denied
Is it allowed to use wildcards in the path?
Thanks!

Hi Arch!
Thanks for your answer!
I used this documentation but without success.
Can you explain what can I use instead of this setting?
File "/path/to/logs/t-*/log/app*.log"
Thx!
Zola, wildcards are not allowed in directory names...
Ohh I missed this ...
Thanks, Manuel!
