Thanks Marius, Sorry it's taken me so long to repsond, I just had an unexpected week in the hospital.
I've just tested the changes in beta 4 and I can now save those fields without a value however the generated config file still includes the entries like so... <Output 57a9d7abd42b92084133c330> Module om_ssl Host graylog2.example.org Port 12443 OutputType GELF_TCP CAFile CertFile CertKeyFile AllowUntrusted True Exec $short_message = $raw_event; # Avoids truncation of the short_message field. Exec $gl2_source_collector = '9e2660a6-b960-4daf-8d90-e37c3c0e1684'; Exec $Hostname = hostname_fqdn(); </Output> This doesn't work as nxlog doesn't like the missing values 2016-08-24 11:34:58 INFO nxlog-ce-2.9.1716 started 2016-08-24 11:34:58 ERROR SSL error, Failed to open certfile: ; The device does not recognize the command. The config will need to be generated without those entries. As an aside, is the mailing list the best place to provide this type of feedback or should I be putting comments back against the issue in github?
