Event Breaking Catastrophe!

Line Breaking is not functioning correctly for an XML source type.

We want to break between these two elements </result> <result expand

Here is the most recent config:
SHOULD_LINEMERGE=false
LINE_BREAKER=<result\sexpand
BREAK_ONLY_BEFORE=<result\sexpand
BREAK_ONLY_BEFORE_DATE=false
MUST_BREAK_AFTER=\/results>

Does this need to be applied to the indexers or in the props.conf on the forwarder? And if just the forwarder, just on the application/local or also in the system/local?

Never use the BREAK_* options; always use LINE_BREAKER like this (you must have a capture group😞

props.conf (on your Indexers/HFs):

SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
LINE_BREAKER = <\/result>([\r\n\s]*)<result\s+expand
