Oh.. Thanks for the information. It is unfortunate that I didn't notice.. Can you suggest me similar tools that can run in windows? — data_set, Mar 20 '13 at 06:28

Log4r or Logging can be potential alternatives with a little work and if you want to log events rather than route them to other parts of your application.

What is your requirement?

I am intended to perform log archiving/analytics with Mongodb as database – data_set Apr 05 '13 at 04:34
Mongo is storing it's documents in BSON not JSON which is a different story altogether. If you want to use mongo you will need to do it with some code of your own. If you want to store in JSON you can use CouchDB. I can write some code here to help you start if you can tell me which way you want to go. – Angelos Kapsimanis Apr 05 '13 at 12:06

Fluentd doesn't run on Windows. You can use ngxlog to collect the logs from Windows to Fluentd. Please check this blog entry.
