I pointed my UF at the web log folder and there are many logs in the folder.
Then the UF started reading the *.log files the contents of the log files started coming in as one event per log file rather than breaking on each line.
How to i get the logs to break on each line in the log rather than collect the hole file as one event.
the UF is sending data to a Intermediate forwarder before going to the indexers. Should I put the linbreaking on the UF or IF
What should the breaking look like these are standered IIS log files that start with these three lines at the top of each file
`
Is there a way to delete and re-index all the files that have been indexed already?
I added these lines to the $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/props.conf file and that fixed the braking
[iis]
pulldown_type = true
MAX_TIMESTAMP_LOOKAHEAD = 32
SHOULD_LINEMERGE = False
CHECK_FOR_HEADER = true
