Hi,
Isn't it possible to parse files with ISO-8859-1 encoding using LOGWATCH?
I created a test using the following configuration:
<parser trace="7">
<file>d:\demo.txt</file>
<rules>
<rule>
<match>[0-9]{3}</match>
<event>100000</event>
</rule>
</rules>
</parser>
When I save a file with 123 as the content the parser will match if it is saved with UTF-8 encoding and it won't match if it is saved with ISO-8859-1 encoding.
Did I forget a setting or is still as intended?
The log that I need to monitor will be in ISO-8859.
I installed the nxagent-1.2.6-x64 agent and it is running on a Windows 2003 R2 x64 server.
Regards,
Jos
Hi!
It's very strange, LOGWATCH should work with ISO-8859-1 without any problem. And file with only 123 as a content should be identical in both UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encodings. Can you post sample of matching and non-matching files?
Best regards,
Victor
Hi Victor,
These are the two files I used while testing.
The 123 in the ANSI file isn't seen as a match, the 123 in the UTF-8 file matches.
Cheers,
Jos
