Hi Team,
I have an error message coming up in Splunk like below. The required log message will come in the middle of the line and i have to extract the content which lies between SQL0911N & SQLSTATE=40001 .
********* SQL0911N ##############. SQLSTATE=40001
Can you please help us to write rex to extract the fields in between the 2 strings. Please let me know if need more information.
Thanks & Regards

Thank you!! As of now we are getting output excluding the key values (SQL\d+N\s & SQLSTATE=\d+). But i want to display both the key values in the error message as well. Please let me know the rex to includes the key values also.

If those strings (SQL0911N & SQLSTATE=40001) are static/fixed, try like this for inline extraction in search
your base search | rex "SQL0911N\s*(?<YourFieldName>.+)\s*SQLSTATE=40001"
