Hi All,

I have a CSV file with the below data, trying to push to splunk.

 

Example - 

Thu JUN 24  15:27:52 +08 2021,name1,address1,Thu  AUG14  15:27:52  2021,Active

Thu JUN 24  15:27:52 +08 2021,name1,address1,Thu JUN 15  05:15:52  2021,Active

in props i'm using below 

[test_app]

 

 

SHOULD_LINEMERGE= FALSE
FIELD_DELIMETER=,
HEADER_FIELD_DELIMETER=,
FIELD_NAMES=Time,names,address,creationtime,status
TIMESTAMP_FIELDS=creationtime
TZ=Asia/Singapore
TIME_FORMAT=%a %b %d %H:%M:%S  %Y

 

 

 

 

fourth fields as timestamp, but Splunk not able to push data.

 

but using the first field in CSV as time field I can able to push data to Splunk using the below stanza

what might be the cause can someone explain.

 

 

 

SHOULD_LINEMERGE= FALSE
FIELD_DELIMETER=,
HEADER_FIELD_DELIMETER=,
FIELD_NAMES=Time,names,address,creationtime,status
TIMESTAMP_FIELDS=Time
TZ=Asia/Singapore
TIME_FORMAT=%d%m%Y%H%M

It looks to me like neither set of props would work.  In the second set, the TIME_FORMAT setting is completely wrong for the sample event.  It's just a little off in the first instance.  What is the INDEX_EXTRACTIONS setting?

I didn't keep any INDEX_EXTRACTIONS setting. 

And I know in the second set TIME_FORMAT setting is completely different, but I'm not sure why it is working. Because I can able to push data using the second set.
