extracting field using rex props.conf

I have data that looks like this:

**** Error  Wed Aug 24 09:36:52 CDT 204941272049412507  /nitro/com/t/Manager    Cexception for the payment id -     nitro.com.Exception: The field with id pg73180373180 failed to be authorized. Reason: mls_error_checkout_action_err_decline

I am trying to extract mls_error_checkout_action_err_decline and mls_error_cart_add_inactive_item so I used this rex (?(mls_error_)\w+) and it seems to work fine when testing in a query but when I try to add it to the props.conf file the extracted field will not show up. This is what my query looks like in my props.conf: EXTRACT-mls_error = (?<mls_error>(mls_error_*)\w+)

(Note there is a asterisk after mls_error_(asterisk))

Any solutions?

I don't see a reason to put a * in your regex. Also, I don't see it in your rex in search.

Try this for your props.conf

EXTRACT-mls_error = (?<mls_error>(mls_error_)\w+)

OR

EXTRACT-mls_error = (?<mls_error>mls_error_[^\s]+)
