    Problem Reading Windows Event Log

    I have created the following item:
    Code:
    eventlog[Application,,,"SourceToRetrieve",,,]
    But it is reporting "Not supported by Zabbix Agent". I am running agent 2.2.1 (revision 40801), which should support this as far as I understand.

    I am very new to Zabbix so I'm sure its something silly. Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks.

    Do you have that item type set to Zabbix Agent (Active) ?

      Yes, I was successfully able to pull all Application logs using the following:
      Code:
      eventlog[Application]
      But cannot get the source parameter to work.

        DO you mind to test the guess about RegEXP for field "Source" in eventlog?
        eventlog[Application,,,"^SourceToRetrieve$",,,]

        or you can check http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infoce...xExamples.html to select the proper RegEXP for your situation.
        Sincerely yours,

          Aib,
          Thanks for the suggestion but unfortunately I get the same result, "Not supported by Zabbix Agent".
