Kiwi Syslog "Check for update..." error

$
0
0

We are new to Kiwi Syslog and are just getting things configured.  We are on version 9.6.1.6.  One thing I immediately noticed is that running the "Check for update..." results in the following error: "An error occurred while checking for available software updates.  Check internet connectivity or proxy server settings.". 

 

We have no proxy server enabled.  From the server with Kiwi Syslog, I have Internet connectivity via a browser with no problems. 

 

From Kiwi's error log, I see the following line associated with the failed update: "Info: An error occurred while checking for available software updates.  Moved Temporarily [20152] - Resource: http://downloads.solarwinds.com/solarwinds/Release/Kiwi/Syslog/currentkiwisyslogversion.xml".  If I paste that URL into a browser, it returns the following:

 

<?xml version="1.0"?>

-<KiwiSyslogServerVersionManifest Version="1">

<CurrentVersion Version="9.6.1" Link="http://downloads.solarwinds.com/solarwinds/Release/Kiwi/Syslog/Kiwi-Syslog-Server-9.6.1.zip" DateReleased="2017-05-01"> New in 9.6.1 update ------------------------------ * Kiwi Syslog Server no longer creates large SolarWinds.SyslogServer.Engine.log fileswhich consume significant disk space. * Kiwi Syslog Server diagnostic information shows the correct buffer usage for all types of messages * If you do not see a "Download Update" button below, copy and paste the following link into your browser to download: http://downloads.solarwinds.com/solarwinds/Release/Kiwi/Syslog/Kiwi-Syslog-Server-9.6.1.zip</CurrentVersion>

</KiwiSyslogServerVersionManifest>

 

I can then paste the .zip link it references into a browser and get the zip file to download (although it appears to be the same version we already have). 

 

Has anyone experienced the same issue or know how to fix it?

 

Thanks!

Forward syslog events to QRadar

$

I'm trying to forward events from Kiwi Syslog to QRadar SIEM. 

 

In Kiwi Syslog setup, I created an Action: Forward to another host; gave it the QRadar appliance's IP as the Destination IP; selected "Retain the original source address of the message"; clicked the Test button to verify the configuration and got a gree checkmark.

 

The test event was the only event received by the QRadar.  None of the events I'm forwarding have been received as incoming logs on QRadar.

 

I've tried this with and without adding the Kiwi Syslog servers as log sources in QRadar.

 

Do I need to install a universal DSM on the Kiwi Syslog servers?

Encoding for Syslog Server Console?

$
0
0

Hello,

I've setup my Kiwi Syslog Server to log to an Oracle Database. That worked, except that german umlauts (like ä, ö, ü) were not written to the DB correctly. (however, they showed up fine in the Server Console).

 

Therefore I changed the encoding for the UDP Input to UTF-8 wich results in fine database logs, but now umlauts in the server console as well as logfiles where displayed incorrect. I could get the logfile problem resolved by setting the LogFileEncodingFormat registry key to UTF-8 (65001). But the problem in the Server Console persists.

 

The weird thing is, changing the UDP input back to "System" encoding doesn't resolve the issue for the console.

Syslog stops logging with no notification

I discovered this morning (only because I didn't receive the nightly report) that two of our Syslog servers stopped logging yesterday afternoon. The nightly archiving and cleanup jobs did not run. The service did not crash. The drive has 63 GB of free space. There are no entries under the Application or System logs in Windows. Under the Errorlog I see this for all of the reporting nodes ("ip.address.#" is placeholder for the actual values in the logs):

the service can be manually started successfully, however it stops with the above errors on a seemingly random basis (at least once a day).

Hi all,

 

Can anyone point me in the direction some documentation on how to change the default Kiwi Syslog web port from 8088 to something else? Say 80?

 

I had a 'quick' search and couldn't find anything solid to go off.

 

Thanks!

  • Domain URL: <Free Form Box>  My domain prepopulated correctly.

Kiwi Syslog Server free ed. not receiving SNMP Traps version 2c

Hello Everybody.

 

I'm having troubles receiving SNMP Traps v 2c on Kiwi Syslog Server Free edition.

Although it is described in the feature list that this is supported (also in the documentation), i can receive version 1 but not 2c.

 

Using Wireshark to listen to the traffic i can clearly see SNMP traps version 2 incoming, but nothing appears on syslog server.

 

Can anyone help?

I asked support@ and sent many mails, but didn't get any answer to the problem, they just said to post my question here because this is a free product.

 

Thank you very much.

I am having kiwi syslog 9.5 installed.

I choose to install as service and also installed the web access.

The syslog console opened fine and I see logs on displayed and also to file.

However, with the web access, it shows nothing (what so ever).  I checked the Setup on Console Manager and see that under Rules i have 2 exact same option for "Log to Syslog Web Access".  Everything under that options checked.

But I still see no log on web access.

 

1) I tried to uncheck all the "Log to Syslog Web Access".

2) Closed the Console Manager and reopened it

3) Checked mark one of the 2 optioins "Log to Syslog Web Access" and everything below it.

4) Opened and log in to web access -> Still see nothing.

 

any idea?

I have just installed the Windows log forwarder to enable us to point our windows event logs to our Kiwi Syslog server. We have  27TB of storage on the Syslog server and I want to seperate the Windows event logs from the regular SNMP traps. How or can I point the windows event logs to a sperate partition than the SNMP traps? The reason for this task is that our security posure requires that we retain our event logs.
