hello, I am interested in graylog and want to know if graylog can meet my needs. unfortunately I always get this error message (screeshot in link below)when trying to create Quick Value, Generate Chart and more on the message fields.
I tried it on a nginx requests stream that came with a virtual appliance.
I’ve been looking for a solution on google but unfortunately have not got it.
thank you for any help.
Hi,
maybe this can help you: Error with "message" and "source" fields
Hope this helps 
Any errors in the log files of Graylog or Elasticsearch?
hi zionio, thanks for the suggestion.
as the link says, i have enabled message “UI analysis disabled for fields” as well. but the error still appears.
hi jtkarvo,
this the error log from graylog

but i dont see any warning or error in elasticsearch log.
UPDATE :
I got this error when opening a link containing errors directly in the browser
Unable to perform terms query\n\nFielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [message] in order to load fielddata in memory by uninverting the inverted index. Note that this can however use significant memory. Alternatively use a keyword field instead.
Hello, all. I solved this problem by using an extractor. whether this is the right step or not but with this i can adding message to dashboard.
could you please inform me how to do this?
also isn’t there any hope to activate the quick values for messages?
Just check - for example “System > Configurations” in your Graylog setup …
i found the below error message from browser which may clarify the problem facnig me:
{“message”:“Unable to perform terms query\n\nFielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [source] in order to load fielddata in memory by uninverting the inverted index. Note that this can however use significant memory. Alternatively use a keyword field instead.”,“details”:[“Fielddata is disabled on text fields by default. Set fielddata=true on [source] in order to load fielddata in memory by uninverting the inverted index. Note that this can however use significant memory. Alternatively use a keyword field instead.”]}
how can i enable the metioned term as this may solve the issue?
you should read the elasticsearch documentation on that:
i did bu it’s really to hard to get the needed steps clearly as i’m not an expert also it seems there’s no clear text file to edit in the server; so i’ve to change in a DB or somthing like that!
could you please summaries to me the actual steps in a simple form?
you should not change the details if you did not get it yourself.
