Cause

When WinCollect is used with a Windows XP or Windows 2003 server, you need to use the older Event Log Poll Protocol.

Resolving The Problem

To resolve this issue

  1. Log in to the QRadar Console.
  2. Click the Admin tab > Log Sources.
  3. Locate the WinCollect log source that is displaying the error.
  4. Change the Event Log Poll Protocol from MSEVEN6 to MSEVEN.




Results: You should now be able to log events without the 0x06D9 error.
