Need help on LINE_BREAKER,TIME_FORMAT and TIME_PREFIX

[sathiyasun]

I have built a props.conf but when I upload the log file manually it works fine but when the app writes the log the line break is not working. Please advise how to make this props.conf working when the app writes log file.

Complete Log file:-

INFO:SESSION TOKEN = A5BD11D7B2BB200B5FB893C120333044:2018-08-28 15:12:03,991

Line Break from this line(INFO:SESSION TOKEN = A5BD11D7B2BB200B5FB893C120333044:2018-08-28 15:12:03,991)

Props.conf

[wsa]
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)(\w+\:\w+\s\w+\s\=\s\w+\:\d+\-\d+\-\d+\s\d+\:\d+\:\d+\,\d+)
NO_BINARY_CHECK = true
TIME_FORMAT = %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S,%3N
TIME_PREFIX = (?i)info\:session[^=]+\=[^:]+\:
pulldown_type = true
disabled = false
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 30

Give this a try

[wsa]
 SHOULD_LINEMERGE = false
 LINE_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)(?=INFO:SESSION TOKEN \=)
 TIME_FORMAT = %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S,%3N
 TIME_PREFIX = INFO:SESSION TOKEN \=[^\:]+\:
 MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 23

Points 2,3 and 4 from @MuS's comments apply here too.

Hi sathiyasun,

just are few hints here:
- the regex matches the line breaker, so that should not be the problem
- did you place the props.conf on the parsing instance (the first full Splunk instance that receives the events)?
- did you restart Splunk after you applied the props.conf?
- Is the sourcetype name correct? The stanza match is case sensitive 😉

Hope this helps ...

cheers, MuS
