I wrote a small python script to tail a file on an SMB mount and push new log entries via syslog to graylog. I can see on a network level that the UDPs are reaching the graylog server (which otherwise works fine with incoming syslog UDP). But the messages show up in no stream.
I then started to look around for logfiles to show potential input/parse errors. But I am unable to find them. I can see that “All Events” etc. exist. I can enable “debug” and show thousands of entries being written. However in the search window if I click “All events” all searches are empty so no real help there.
Any idea how to debug the issue on why the syslog messages are being ignored?
I can see the missing UDP messages in the messagejournal logfile
