field extractions with delims

[a212830]

Hi,

I'm trying to create some fields using the DELIM option in transforms.conf. My file is whitespace separated, and here are my props/transforms:

props:
[bcoat_proxysg_streaming]
REPORT-main=delimExtractions
TRANSFORMS-sourcetype = nullPound
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 20
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
TZ = UTC

transforms:
[nullPound]
REGEX = ^#
DEST_KEY=queue
FORMAT=nullQueue

[delimExtractions]
DELIMS=" "
FIELDS="date", "time", "c-ip", "cs-username", "sc-filter-result", "cs-method", "cs-uri", "sc-status", "cs(Referer)", "cs-categories", "cs-auth-group", "x-exception-
id", "s-action", "cs(User-Agent)", "x-duration", "sc-bytes", "cs-bytes", "cs-uri-scheme", "cs-host", "cs-uri-port", "cs-uri-path", "cs-uri-query", "cs-uri-extension
", "protocol", "transport", "channelURL"

This looks pretty basic to me, but the fields aren't being shown in the SH. The files are being processed on a HF and sent to an indexer. I put these entries on the HF.

Am I missing something?

There are two types of field extractions which are search time field extraction and index time field extraction. Your delimExtraction is for search time extraction, not index time. Therefore, you should put it on SH, not HF. Please note that your nullqueue setting is processed in index time, so it should be left on HF. Please try this and confirm if it solve the issue.
