logfile rotation issue using logrt function in Windows

[genebofunk]

Hello,
I have tried searching the forums for this issue. I have searched and found several other posts but I have not seen one that solves the issue I am having. I'm trying to search for a string in a log. When I use the regular log function on a single file it finds it no problem. As soon as I try using logrt with a wildcard it does not return anything. I checked the zabbix agent logs running on the windows machine that hosts it. I see zabbix indexing the log files correctly. So its not a permissions issue. But it just does not return anything for some reason.
The examples are below. As you can see I did both tests in the same directory but get nothing using the one example with logrt and the wildcard. Am I missing something obvious?


Thanks for any help and pointers.

It looks ok, the only difference I see with my own logrt items is that I have the path including wildcard symbol in " " so it looks like:

logrt["c:\mypath\log\mylogfile_*.log",{$myregex},,,,,,,]

The _ before the * is part of the filename, I also have examples with a . before the wildcard and that works as well.
It could be that logrt needs al comma's but I'm not sure about it but there is a reason I have them there but it's been to long ago to remember it was somehow needed to get it working or just making it this without a reason

You can omit all those commas from the end of parameter list. You need correct amount only if you change some parameter in the end of the line...

I tried adding the " " marks to the location but this did not work? Any other suggestions?

This is from the log of zabbix agent that is running on the server that is doing the logrt check. To me it looks like it finds the directory, but is not finding the logfile correctly. I know my item key has an item in it that happens in this log ever few minutes. Its been running for a few hours but never seems to find it.. Any clues from this?
