I have tried to get Splunk to recognize a new format of dates but im unable even to get the train date to understand the date, i only get : "Skipping unpromissing line" when running that on the logfile. The date and time is in the following format:

11032011 101305
11032011 101304

MMDDYYYY HHMMSS

I would need help to proceed to get Splunk to be able to recognize this date format.

You will need to modify the props.conf with the following (assuming 24-hour clock) :

[yoursourcetype]
TIME_FORMAT = %m%d%Y %H%M%S
