Why are application logs not getting indexed in Splunk?

The internal logs flow to splunk UI but the applications logs are not flowing to splunk UI.

We have a cluster with several different components. We are facing the above issue with only one of the component, although, the splunk configuration for all the components are same except the host differs.

Hi @amand,

could you better describe your issue?

are you speking of one specific server or the issue is on all servers.

if on a specific server, which role has this server?

could you better describe your architecture? have you clusters?

Ciao.

We have 3 components in our cluster, assume A, B, C.
All have been configured in the same manner.
But we see application logs for B & C but not for A.
Although, we are able to see _internal index logs for A.

Hi @amand,

I suppose that you're speaking of an Indexer Cluster and you distributed an add-on using the Master Node to all the peers.

Which are the application logs you're speaking of?

which is the add-on you're using?

Ciao.

We are able to see this on UI : index=_internal host=ip-xx-xx-xx-xxx source="/opt/splunkforwarder/var/log/splunk/splunkd.log"

 

but not this : index="blitz-athena" host=ip-xx-xx-xx-xxx                                                                                                           source = "/var/log/supervisord/collector.log"

 

P.S  : These two indexes are of the same host

Hi @amand,

can you see other events on the same index?

Ciao.
