Subject: [Apcupsd-users] Windows / Syslog

Hi

I'm running apcupsd 3.14.8  on Win2008 and everything seems to work except for one thing: Absolutely nothing is logged to syslog.

According the manual all logging is based on syslog but I find no settings in the .conf file telling which syslog server to address. I therefore assume that apcupsd logs to local host 127.0.0.1 however I can see absolutely no activity not even in wireshark ?

In the application eventlog however I see a number of entries like

--

The description for Event ID 0 from source Apcupsd cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event:

Is there some kind of guide/FAQ that addresses this ?

Thanks
