Best way to index SQLite DB file?

Hello,

I need to index a SQLite DB file. However when I tell Splunk to monitor the file and I look at the indexed data it is all 0's or binary. The application that creates and updates the DB does not have an option to export the data.

Am I missing something? any ideas?

Cheers

DBX allows you to do that. It's possible to setup a database monitor on a sqlite database and index new records, when the database is updated.

It's a commercial extension, though.
