vleschuk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Dear Perlmonks,

especially the ones, who have an experience with (Strawberry) Perl on Windows,

could you, please, assist with the following issue: when I'm using Sys::Syslog module and sends multi-line message to the Windows' Event Log, it takes every line as a new message.

Considering that die is catched and logged, every line ends up living as a new message in Event Log, making it absolutely uncomfortable to read and troubleshoot things.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

    ?? So don't do that? Log to console or tcp?
      Thank you - a very nice piece of advice =) Any suggestions how to make it work?

    Found the issue was with Perl code logic. Sys::Syslog works as expected. The morality of the store: always narrow to the smallest code that cause the troubles. Thanks and sorry.
