Line Break multiple access logs

[dperry]

I need to line break, starting at the IP and end with the time. ex:

Sometimes Splunk singles out the events and/or groups them as seen above. I need to make them each event......Also I have noticed a - symbol once in a while before an IP......

What would be the regex that needs to be added to my props.conf?? Please advise.

I think only IP based line breaking should be good enough for your logs

In your props.conf add

 LINE_BREAKER=([\r\n]+)\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}

You have to tweak the regex to include - condition.

Currently this is what I have in Props.conf:

[web_access]
TIME_PREFIX = \d+.\d+.\d+.\d+\s+\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+:\d+\s+-\s+\d+\s+[
TIME_FORMAT = %d/%b/%Y:%H:%M:%S\s%z
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 65
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = False
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)(\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+\s+\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+:\d+\s+-\s+\d+\s+[\d+\/\w+\/\d{4}:\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2})

Thanks, tweak the regex to include - condition? how is this done?
