Getting Data In

monitor stanza in Windows

I want to monitor the following

C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Burn

sometimes with the Burn directory there will be other folders.

I want to monitor all the folders and files under the burn directory

The following does not appear to be working:

[monitor://C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\burn\]
sourcetype = WindowsBurnLog
disabled = 0
index=windows

Try adding "recursive = true" to the stanza. This should be the default, but worth a shot just in case.

Also, what exactly is not working? Do you only get files directly in the "burn" directory indexed? Do you get them from all users folders or just some?

You may also want to try using:
monitor://C:\Users...\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\burn...*

Nothing really. I even added a "*"
