Hi,
I want to truncate a text field if it is longer than 32766 Bytes. From the
documentation I understand that I can do that with the global StringLimit
directive:
"To protect against memory exthastion (and possible a DOS) caused by oversized
strings there is a limit on the
number of bytes for strings. If this directive is not specified the default
value is 5242880, i.e. strings will be truncated at
5Mb."
If I set StringLimit to 32766 the message is not truncated, it is not processed
by nxlog and an error message in the Logfile is repeating constantly:
2016-06-28 11:25:52 ERROR oversized string, limit is 32766 bytes
2016-06-28 11:25:54 ERROR oversized string, limit is 32766 bytes
2016-06-28 11:25:58 ERROR last message repeated 2 times
2016-06-28 11:26:00 ERROR oversized string, limit is 32766 bytes
When I do not set the limit the message is processed and truncated, and the
logfile says:
2016-06-28 11:23:25 ERROR data size (5242879) is over the limit (65000), will
be truncated
Can anybody clear this up for me ? How can I truncate a field that is too long ?
Best regards
Marcella
