Can anyone help me with a regular expression for an extraction please?

Need to extract "failure" from below and add to field called "Error":

160.2:ERR Code = <1/failure/7353280025534419>

This regex does not work:

rex field=_raw "\d+\:ERR\s+Code\s+\=\s\<1\/(?P<Error>[^\>]+)\/[0-9]\>"

Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Am not sure which part exactly would you like to extract.

if it's failure: |rex field=_raw "\/(?<Error>\S+)\/"

if it's the long digit which is the error code then: |rex field=_raw "\/(?<Error>\d+)\>"

Thanks,
L

do you get any error? and is this all you have in the _raw data? try with more match...

|rex field=_raw "\\d+\/(?<Error>\S+)\/"
