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,…

In Syslog NG we need to regex the message texts to find the value of the deviceID and then use that in the log file name so that we can split the logs based on that value. I've created a script, which executes but doesn't match and capture the deviceID value. I've tested and see $Common["VarCleanMessageText"] has the value…
I am trying to add an action "Log to database - new bulk insert" to one of my rules via the web UI. I can't get it to work with MySQL. I have MySQL installed on the same server. When using the "Test connection", i don't get any feedback other than "Connection to database works". I get the same result whether I use correct…
Installed a new version of Kiwi Syslog Server NG. We have the lagacy version of Kiwi Syslog running in production and it is using SQL server. How do I configure SQL for Kiwi Syslog Server NG? Is this database supported with the newer version? I am not finding any documentation on SQL and Kiwi Syslog Server NG. I am not…
I just installed NG 1.2, migrated my rules and then after an hour uninstalled it and installed Legacy 9.8.3. Main complaints: * Can't resize display columns so your message is cut off and does not wrap making it a useless log viewer. * Does not support AD credentials/integration so all administrators have to be added as…
Hi! Sorry, i don't really understand the schedule in KSS NG: when I simply want to perform a daily archive job, I have to choose one of the 'every day' options, otherwise it will always do it every minute?! How for example can I set an archive job for every day at 8pm? ;) Thanks! Schitti
