Telegraf - Windows2008R2 & Windows 10

[esxi1979]

Hello i followed

https://docs.influxdata.com/telegraf/v1.6/administration/windows_service/

i see err

E! Error parsing C:\Program Files\Telegraf\telegraf.conf, Undefined but requested input: processes

Also when i tried to start it from Windows UI i get

System error 1067 has occurred.
The process terminated unexpectedly

Any suggestions pls
thanks

The processes plugin is only available on unix systems, on Windows the win_perf_counters plugin is the closest replacement.

I'll open a new issue to document any plugin platform restrictions.

#860

both with no luck

ie
stuff explained in https://www.ricardclau.com/2016/03/running-go-executables-consul-telegraf-as-windows-services/

in short
nssm install Telegraf C:\telegraf\telegraf.exe -config C:\telegraf\telegraf.conf
