Check_logfiles on windows

Post by jbeaujour »

Hello,
We try to compile check_logfiles (Consol Labs) for Windows, but with great difficulty.
Does someone has a check_logfiles.exe >V3.7 for windows 32 and/or 64b ?
we have a fairly urgent need for this plugin
Thanks

Did you get this from their website? If so, that's where you should start checking for help. We can't troubleshoot something we didn't write, unfortunately.

These are general forums, anyone can post here. It goes without saying that accepting binary files from someone on an open forum is risky.

Have you tried NSClient for this, if you're unable to get the other plugin to work? Check out this awesome guide: https://outsideit.net/real-time-eventlog-monitoring/

Hello,
There is no support forum for this product, and and I've already seen some posts here.
We don't want to use eventlog but a check_nrpe from NAGIOS who call an external script with different config files for each search.
It is impossible to use the perl version of check_logfiles for our usage.

We stiil have have the need

Thank for your response
Have a good day

I wish I had a better answer, but since we didn't write the software, we cannot provide support for compiling it.

Have you looked into Nagios Log Server? This product could meet a lot of your needs.

Could you try to email the developer directly, if you're looking for support for the plugin??

I'm trying to provide alternatives, since we're unable to support the compiling process of check_logfiles.

Thanks for the reply, but this is a pretty old thread. Going to lock it.
