Maestro Madness
Hi There
I tried a lot to solve this issue, but with no success. I am using R80.30 take 200 with standalone configuration
I created a new exporter with
cp_log_export add name LOG-514 target-server 172.30.61.21 target-port 514 protocol tcp
and already get an error
sed: invalid option -- E
Error: Failed to set tag name: [is_enabled] as: true
Directory and files were created, so I can change call tghe settings by hand
<ip>$targetIp</ip><!--the ip of the syslog server-->
<port>$targetPort</port><!--the port on which the syslog is listening to-->
<protocol>$protocol</protocol><!--udp/tcp-->
<security></security><!--clear/tls-->
<ip>$targetIp</172.30.61.21><!--the ip of the syslog server-->
<port>$targetPort</514><!--the port on which the syslog is listening to-->
<protocol>$protocol</tcp><!--udp/tcp-->
<security></clear><!--clear/tls-->
changes those, the service is at least running now
[Expert@ips:0]# cp_log_export status
name: LOG-514
status: Running (829)
last log read at: 8 Apr 14:59:01
debug file: /opt/CPrt-R80.30/log_exporter/targets/LOG-514/log/log_indexer.elg
But there are still plenty of errors in the log_indexer.elg and I see no communiction on port TCP/514

Anyone having any idea what I could try? I guess the service is running but not correctly initialised, therefore no communication to the syslog server possible.
It's R80.30 Take 200
If you really put it lilke this:
<ip>$targetIp</172.30.61.21><!--the ip of the syslog server-->
<port>$targetPort</514><!--the port on which the syslog is listening to-->
<protocol>$protocol</tcp><!--udp/tcp-->
<security></clear><!--clear/tls-->
Then the fault is, that its wrong. It should be:
<ip>172.30.61.21</ip>
<port>514</port>
<protocol>tcp</protocol>
<security>clear</security>
Then it would be?
<ip>172.30.61.21</ip>
The backslash before the </ip> not behind the "21/<ip>"
I will try on Tuesday, until than we have freeze
Works! Thanks a lot!
