vfs..file.regex filesystem parameter wildcard

[jimzs]

I'm trying to use the vfs..file.regex to search through multiple files that end in .txt to match a particular string. If I try one without the wildcard it works fine. When I include the wildcard I get a Not Supported by Zabbix Agent error. This is for a windows system.
Any help would be appreciated.


This works fine.
vfs.file.regexp[w:\folder\badmail\Sep04\090414_112142_1000.txt,tes t]

Thisr returns the error.
vfs.file.regexp[w:\folder\badmail\Sep04\/*.txt,test]

Any ideas?

Hello and welcome!

A straight wildcard will not work in this case. You need to escape backslashes and modify the wildcard part.
Try to check your item with the following key:

vfs.file.regexp["w:\\folder\\badmail\\Sep04\\.*.txt",test]
