You can simply create zabbix_agentd.conf and place it in the root of C:

Contents: ( items in <> is just for your info. delete them)

Server=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx      <Your Zabbix server IP>
LogFile=C:\zabbix\zabbix_agentd.log   <Whatever path you want the log to go to>
DebugLevel=3                     <Normal debug level. for lots of info, change to 4>
Hostname=xxxxxxxx         <Must be a unique name. I use the servername. Case sensitive>

Note that the Hostname must be an exact match to what you enter in the Zabbix GUI for the host.

You need to do some basic troubleshooting.

On your host, there is a log in the c:\zabbix directory

On your server there is a log (depending on your setup) most likely in the /tmp/ directory.
