Hi Team, I came across an issue where I have below sample logs in a file

I am using splunk forwarder version splunkforwarder-8.2.4-87e2dda940d1-x64-release

with below prop.conf settings

[xyz:mnl]
LB_CHUNK_BREAKER = ([\r\n]+)

On splunk portal I am not getting one line as a one event instead I am getting multiple lines as a single event like below

Hi @mayurkale471757 ,

try to upload a sample of your file using the Add Data GUI feature that guides you in the sourcetype creation.

Ciao.
