if we create a new rule with filters and actions, after some time, some of the filters loosing their description and the sort-order of the filter is automatically changed. Has anyone else seen this behavior? we've already opened a support-ticket....
In the legacy version, there was a way to mute logging to the C:\ProgramData\SolarWinds\KiwiSyslogService\logs folder. In Kiwi NG, there does not appear to be a way to mute this behavior. We typically deploy Kiwi NG to a VM with a minimal sized C: drive and store logs on a seperate drive. However, we are experiencing a…
we've changed the default log to file action - path to a separate file-partition. and in addition to that, we set a static file-name without any autosplit-variables. but the file-name always comes with a date-and timestamp at the end of the name. does anyone else facing a similar error? i've already opened a…
We moved from the legacy kiwi syslog to NG this morning and discovered that the NG is truncating logs at 1024 characters. The legacy version is not. Is there a setting available to adjust this? Thanks!
I know the old Kiwi is now supposed to be bad because there is a new (NG) version, but I like my old version. The new version can KiSS it! (I'm joking, of course... but I'm not... but I am... but I'm not) The old version is super powerful, but it's also super old. The new version, which I've tried several times, just…
Hi All. This feels like a super simple issue that I should have been able to figure out. I am just starting to use Kiwi Syslog Server NG and I will be monitoring Windows Event Logs. I set up the forwarder and I can see events in the dashboard. When I go to the Events tab, I can only partially read the message. When I hover…
Many customers in Japan receive syslog messages in Shift-JIS code. Legacy KSS had a "Data Encoding" setting, so Japanese characters were not garbled. However, KSS NG v1.4 does not have a "Data Encoding" setting in the INPUTS protocols settings. As a result, Japanese messages in Shift-JIS are garbled in KSS NG. Please add a…

Hi, Been using Kiwi syslog for years. Just installed NG on a 2019 server to test. We are unable to get the 'write to file' action to work. Clicking the 'Browse' button while setting up the action does nothing. Entering a relative path of 'Logs\something.txt' and applying generates no file (or 'Logs' folder) in the…
I was just about to ask "Why does v1.3.1.2 explicitly dependent on such an old version of DotNet (v8.0.3)? " (which was released March 12, 2024, but Kiwi NG v1.3.1.2 was released in January 2025) But I see now that v1.4.0.2 depends on DotNet v8.0.16 which is an improvement (if you're subject to continuous Nessus scans,…
