    Logparser limiation with Textline, Unicode and CheckPoint

    Reply Contact

    Hello,

    I have a LogParser query which I run across an ASCII and UNICODE file (2 files in total).  Unicode file has FF FE for the first characters when viewed in HEX dump.

    LogParser.exe "select EXTRACT_FILENAME(LogFileName), text FROM 'C:\*.log' where text like '%%Job Successful%%'" -i:TextLine -oataGrid

    I get 2 results returned which is as expected.  When I run the same query with a CheckPoint file I only get the ASCII record returned. 

    LogParser.exe "select EXTRACT_FILENAME(LogFileName), text FROM 'C:\*.log' where text like '%%Job Successful%%'" -i:TextLine -oataGrid -iCheckPoint:"C:\checkpoint.chk"

    Is there a limitation with LogParser, Unicode and CheckPoint files?

    Thanks
    Glenn

    You've probably already figured this out, however, for other people who come across this post, I found today that adding the parameter "-iCheckPoint:-1" fixed this problem for me.
