Verification steps on Windows server using NXLOG Utility
When issues arise while configuring or maintaining an NXLog instance, a stepwise troubleshooting approach (moving from the most likely and simple cases to the more complex and rare ones) generally yields favourable results. The first step is always to inspect the internal log which NXLog generates.
By default, NXLog generates log messages about its own operations. These messages are essential for troubleshooting problems and should be checked first if NXLog is not functioning as expected.
These internal messages are written to the file defined in the LogFile directive in nxlog.conf
. On Windows that file is C:\Program Files\nxlog\data\nxlog.log
; on Linux, /opt/nxlog/var/log/nxlog/nxlog.log
.
If this directive is not specified, internal logging is disabled.
