I have nxlog setup to ship json messages to logstash, however I was getting
a lot of corrupt messages for my SQL Error logs.
I setup a little test that uses an im_file input and an om_file output with
Exec convert_fields('UCS-2LE','UTF-8'); if $raw_event == '' drop(); fairly
consistently an encoding error happens every 200- 300 lines resulting in
scrambled characters EVEN if every line in the source file is the same (cut
and paste repeated).
I have also tested using the convert() function with the same results.
This seems to happen on both Windows 7 and 2008 server with
nxlog-ce-2.8.1248
<Extension charconv>
Module xm_charconv
</Extension>
<Input SQLErr>
Module im_file
File "C:\Temp\Logs\ERRORLOG*"
Exec convert_fields('UCS-2LE','UTF-8'); if $raw_event == '' drop();
</Input>
<Output NxOut>
Module om_file
File "C:\\Temp\\Logs\\nx_output.txt"
</Output>
<Route 1>
Path SQLErr => NxOut
</Route>
