CSV file data not ingesting to specified index in inputs.conf

[b0b]

I am trying to ingest a csv file and have indicated in the UF inputs.conf file as shown below

[monitor://C:\<directory>\file.csv]
index = csv_data
sourcetype = csv
crcSalt = <SOURCE>

I created a new index on the Splunk GUI page and even added the new index in indexes.conf on the Splunk machine. However, it seems like the data is not ingesting to the index 'csv_data' which I indicated. When I change the index in the UF inputs.conf to my lastChanceIndex, for some reason, it starts to ingest the csv data. 

How do I make the data ingest to the csv_data index instead of the lastChanceIndex? Am I missing a step?

Hi,

Do you have a distributed enviornment with Indexers and Search Heads, or a single Splunk instance?

Try searching this in Splunk and look for error of warning messages:

index=_internal "csv_data"

Hi,

Single Splunk instance. I searched for that in Splunk, a couple of results from metrics.log, but nothing came out as Warning. The log_level is INFO for all.
