I have enabled eventgen and its does generate but I keep hitting the same issue when it tries to pass a sample log with "" 

 

time="2023-06-08T23:02:21Z" level=info msg="Parsing configuration for sample: ActiveDirectoryLab.sample"
time="2023-06-08T23:02:21Z" level=info msg="Parsing configuration for sample: apache_access_demo.csv"
time="2023-06-08T23:02:21Z" level=fatal msg="Failed to read csv sample file: parse error on line 2, column 40: bare \" in non-quoted-field"

 

Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong would be appreciated
